Jakob Moder Exclusive: Winner named in Everton & Leicester race as deal agreed
Everton and Leicester target Jakub Moder is set for a medical at Feyenoord after they agreed a fee with Brighton, sources have told Football Insider.
The Dutch side are poised to win the race for Moder's signature after agreeing a fee of £1.2million with the Seagulls.
He has been given permission to hold talks and undergo a medical with the Eredivisie champions.
Everton and Leicester were interested in Moder but Feyenoord have moved quickly to agree a deal for the 25-year-old.
He has played just seven times across all competitions for Brighton so far in the 2024-25 campaign.
The Poland international's only two starts of the season have come in the League Cup and he has played just 160 club minutes this term.
Moder has been a regular on the international stage, featuring in five of Poland's six Nations League games against Scotland, Croatia and Portugal.

The 25-year-old's Amex Stadium contract was set to expire at the end of this season but he has now agreed a move to Dutch giants Feyenoord.
