Everton are reportedly keen on signing Manchester United starlet Amad Diallo on loan.
The 20-year-old has been a Red Devils player since 2021 after spending two years with Atalanta. His time at Old Trafford has been difficult as he failed to cement his place as a bonafide starter.
His first loan spell at Glasgow Rangers didn't play out as he envisaged after struggling in the Scottish Premiership. However, he has thrived on loan in the Championship with Sunderland this season. He fired the Black Cats to within touching distance of a return to the English top-flight but fell short in the play-off semi-finals under Tony Mowbray.

And the Northern Echo are reporting that the Wearside club have suffered a major setback in their hopes of re-signing the Ivorian after netting 14 goals in 39 matches and contributing three assists.
United boss Erik ten Hag is reportedly looking to utilise the 20-year-old during pre-season and ascertain whether he will fit into his first team at Old Trafford. Whether he does or not, it has been speculated that West Ham United, Everton and Premier League new boys Burnley are looking to acquire his signature on a temporary basis.
It's been said that the Hammers are lining up a move for the winger as they look to return to the top half of the table after battling relegation in 2022-23.
But Sean Dyche's side are also believed to be keen on giving the attacker his first continued spell in the Premier League.
Burnley, now managed by Vincent Kompany after Dyche's departure last season, are also reported to be in the hunt as they gear up for their immediate return to the top flight.
