Everton are 'exploring' the possibility of a £35million January bid for Watford talisman Ismaila Sarr, according to the Mirror.
The Toffees are reportedly among several admirers of the Senegal international, whose six goals and three assists leave the Hornets fourth in the Championship and battling for automatic promotion. Sarr saw his World Cup campaign ended with the 3-0 defeat to England last Sunday and could be back in domestic action as soon as tomorrow, when his side host Hull City.
Toffees manager Frank Lampard is expected to prioritise attacking reinforcements once the winter window opens, and late summer bids for Mykhaylo Mudryk and Mohammed Kudus paint a picture of the calibre of player wanted at Goodison Park. Everton are the joint-second lowest scorers in the Premier League this season and a failure to find the net in their last three league games will see the Blues spend Christmas Day just one point and one place above the relegation zone.
