Everton transfer news

West Ham boss Moyes is keen to add quality to the centre of his midfield, with Bournemouth's Harry Arter and Schneiderlin under consideration.

Sandro and McCarthy, who has only featured once this season, both impressed during a friendly match at Finch Farm earlier this week.

Everton's director of football Steve Walsh and the club's new chief scout Martyn Glover flew to France on Wednesday (20 December) to watch Soumaoro as Lille drew 1-1 with Nice.

N'Zonzi, who is said to be a target for Arsenal, has made no secret of his desire to leave Andalusia.

Everton and Arsenal are both prepared to pay €48m for the talented 22-year-old, according to a report from Lozano's native Mexico.

The Toffees are in need of added quality up front, while Tottenham already have Harry Kane and Fernando Llorente at their disposal.

Allardyce has worked with both the Belgian and Frenchman at Crystal Palace and Blackburn Rovers respectively.

Everton manager Sam Allardyce insists there is no bid on the table from Chelsea for Ross Barkley, although a January exit could make sense if the player does not wish to stay put.

Barkley is yet to play this season after suffering a serious hamstring injury in training in August.

Ramirez has not featured in any of Allardyce's match-day squads so far and is Valencia boss Marcelino's top target for January.

Walsh's loan spell at Birmingham City was cut short by Steve Cotterill but high-flying Bristol are keen on a permanent transfer.

Toffees boss Sam Allardyce signed Dutchman Van Aanholt for Crystal Palace for around £14m in January, and has confirmed his desire to recruit a left-back next month.

Everton's squad is rather lop-sided after a summer of lavish but questionable spending, and Allardyce is keen to rectify previous recruitment errors.

Valencia boss Marcelino is looking to bolster his side with fresh additions in January in a bid to sustain a push for La Liga.

Everton boss Sam Allardyce admits he will be judged on what signings he makes but did not discuss reported interest in Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

Both West Ham and Everton are in need of defensive reinforcements and are looking at Evans as a potential solution.

Walcott has not started a Premier League match this season and is on Sam Allardyce's agenda according to recent reports.

Sandro is of interest to Valencia, who are surprisingly fighting for the Spanish league title this season, but a move to the Mestalla Stadium is far from certain.

Niasse is a cult hero among the Goodison Park faithful after fighting his way back into first-team contention.

Theo Walcott still has a future at Arsenal and will not be offloaded by the club during the January transfer window, according to manager Arsene Wenger.

Steven N'Zonzi claims his future lies away from Sevilla following a bust-up with Eduardo Berizzo, although insists that he is in London to see his son rather than negotiate a move.

Walcott has not started a Premier League game for Arsenal this season and has had to make do with Europa League and Carabao Cup appearances.

Everton are in need of a new left-back with incumbent Leighton Baines entering the twilight of his career.

Valencia are reportedly interested in pursuing a loan deal for Sandro, who has toiled since moving to Goodison Park.

New Everton manager Sam Allardyce is planning to employ a sports psychologist at Goodison Park, while reports suggest he is also interested in West Brom defender Jonny Evans.

Everton are in dire need of fresh blood in attack but have surprisingly scored the same number of league goals as they did this time last season.

The former Barcelona forward has endured a torrid time at Goodison Park since joining from Malaga in the summer.

Everton did not replace Romelu Lukaku despite having ample time to do so, and are now paying the price for their summer misdemeanours.

Former Gunners starlet Ozyakup, 25, is set to leave Besiktas when his contract expires at the end of the season.

Dembele guided Celtic to a historic treble last season and interested parties would be "lucky" to sign him for £30m, according to the scout who helped him move to Parkhead.
