Everton are reportedly pursuing a deal for Real Betis midfielder Guido Rodriguez as Frank Lampard aims to continue his rebuild of his first-team squad.
The Blues have made one summer signing during the current transfer window, recruiting James Tarkowski, though are believed to be close to striking an agreement for Sporting Lisbon defender Ruben Vinagre. One department Everton supporters are keen to see strengthened is midfield, however, after being overrun in this area on multiple occasions last season.
Rodriguez is the latest name to emerge as a target for the Toffees and would command a fee in the region of €25million (£20m), having 'set their sights' on the Argentine as a potential option to explore.
