Everton have already agreed a fee with Barcelona to bring Andre Gomes to Goodison Park on a full-term basis and will likely want to add other faces to their squad before the start of the next season.
Today’s Toffees transfer roundup brings you a report on the beginning of talks for a former loanee, an update in the pursuit of a Ligue 1 star and interest in a La Liga defender.
Chelsea and Everton in talks over Zouma
According to the Independent, Everton have opened talks with Chelsea over the potential purchase of French centre-back Kurt Zouma. The former Saint Etienne man spent last season on loan with the Merseyside outfit and may now return on a permanent basis.
Ocampos agent talks about potential price tag
Bruno Satin, the agent of Marseille player Lucas Ocampos, has said the Argentinian could be available for a fee in between €10m (£8.9m) and €15m (£13.3m) this summer. Everton were linked with the winger back in April by Calciomercato.
Arias of interest to Toffees
El Gol is reporting that Everton are prepared to pay €40m (£35.6m) for Atletico Madrid right-back Santiago Arias. The Colombian signed last summer for the Spanish side for €11m (£9.8m), so they could make a tidy profit on their original investment.
