Arsenal and Tottenham ‘joined by Everton in Joaquin Correa transfer race for Lazio striker’
EVERTON have joined Arsenal and Tottenham in the race to sign Lazio ace Joaquin Correa, according to reports.

But there are still hopes Correa will change his mind once he returns fresh after winning the Copa America with Argentina.
Sarri said: "He [Correa] could play as a left striker if he wants to do it.
