Everton are reportedly keen on forward Ante Rebic.

Ante Rebic of Eintracht Frankfurt scores his team's first goal during the Bundesliga match between Hannover 96 and Eintracht Frankfurt at HDI-Arena on February 24, 2019 in Hanover, Germany.

According to Calciomercato, Everton are interested in snapping up Eintracht Frankfurt forward Ante Rebic this summer.

The Toffees picked up a rousing 2-0 win over Chelsea this afternoon, with Richarlison and Gylfi Sigurdsson getting on the scoresheet in a fine second half display.

Marco Silva now needs to kick on from here after a disappointing campaign to date, and more summer signings may be targeted to help his cause.

Now, Calciomercato claim that Everton are keen on Frankfurt ace Rebic, whose versatility may come in handy given that he can play up front, behind a striker or on either flank.

The Croatian World Cup star, 25, has predominantly transformed himself into a number 10 this season, supplying Frankfurt’s deadly duo of Luka Jovic and Sebastian Haller in attack.

Rebic himself has eight goals and three assists in 20 Bundesliga outings this term, whilst he’s also helping the German side in the latter stages of the Europa League.

Frankfurt are bound to receive major interest in a host of players, and Rebic – often linked to the Premier League – is bound to be one of them.

A robust attacker with pace, power and real work rate, Rebic could be a fine addition to the Everton attack – though a natural solution up top or on the right, two problem areas, he is not.
