Premier League trio interested in Japan's Nakamura
[Getty Images] Keito Nakamura has attracted interest from Premier League clubs, including Bournemouth , Everton and Fulham with his impressive performances for Japan at the World Cup. The 26-year-old winger has an agreement in place with his French side Reims that would allow him to leave for a suitable fee - understood to be about £21.5m - after the club failed to win promotion to Ligue 1 last season. Everton and Bournemouth have asked what it might take to sign Nakamura with his entourage but would need to attackers to leave before making a move. Fulham, who look likely to appoint Alvaro Arbeloa as their new manager, are also keen. Nakamura spent last season playing in the French second tier, despite interest from clubs including Spanish club Villarreal and Turkish giants Besiktas, with offers reaching up to £15.5m. The versatile forward finished as Reims' leading scorer with 14 goals and then established himself as Japan's first-choice left winger at the World Cup after Brighton 's Kaoru Mitoma's was ruled out with a hamstring injury. Nakamura scored one goal, provided an assist and was named in Opta's team of the group stage. Japan pushed Brazil in their last 32 match before the five-time champions scored a late winner to knock out the Samurai Blue.
