Charles De Ketelaere.

Where?

Everton have apparently thrown their name in the hat for Club Brugge's Charles De Ketelaere.

The Belgian seemed destined for a move to Serie A giants AC Milan but with negotiations ongoing, reports in Italy have claimed that the Toffees are trying to hijack a move for the 21-year-old. Lampard's side face stiff competition from other Premier League clubs as well as De Ketelaere's favoured option in Milan.

Who?

Matheus Nunes.

Where?

O Jogo.

What?

Everton are reportedly out of the race for Portuguese midfielder Matheus Nunes.

Print media in Portugal have reported that the Sporting CP star has turned down a move to the Toffees. Chelsea are believed to be in the mix for the 23-year-old who is rumourted to have a £51m release clause in his contract.

Who?

Kyle Walker-Peters.

Where?

The Mirror.

What?

A report in The Mirror suggests Frank Lampard is looking for two new Everton signings - Kyle Walker-Peters and Armando Broja. The article claims the boss is a 'big fan' of the Saints full-back, and is also keen to recruit Broja.

On Walker-Peters, the piece adds: "Southampton would be loathe to sell, which would mean a big fee for the Mersey club, but if they Premier League allow them to spend again, then Lampard wants to make a splash in the transfer market this summer."

However, the ECHO understands the club are not currently chasing the defender.
