Everton have been linked with a move for Elfsborg full-back Daniel Mobaeck.

The 27-year-old has earned rave reviews since being converted to a defender from a striker, by coach Magnus Haglund.

Mobaeck impressed many onlookers last week when he scored the winner in Elfsborg's 1-0 UEFA Champions League qualifier in Debrecen.

The player himself admits he would be tempted by a move to England.

English ambition

"Of course, I would be interested in playing in the Premier League," declared Mobaeck.

"If an offer comes, which is right for both the club and me, I am of course interested.

"It's obvious that it is noticed in Europe when you score in an important match."

Interest confirmed

The player's agent Martin Klette would not confirm that David Moyes's side were amongst those interested - with Strasbourg also said to be keeping close tabs on Mobaeck.

However, Klette did admit he did know of interest from two clubs.

"I can confirm that two European clubs have enquired about Daniel, but I can't say which," Klette told Expressen.
