Everton have been linked with the Swansea City play-maker.

According to the Telegraph, Everton are tipped as a potential destination for Swansea City midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson this month.

The Iceland international has played 112 times for the Swans to date, scoring 33 goals and providing 23 assists in the process, and with Everton manager Ronald Koeman seeking additional quality in key areas he could do a lot worse than the 27-year-old.

At his best, Sigurdsson is a superb option and he would immediately bring more attacking threat to a Toffees side that has been over reliant on striker Romelu Lukaku this season.

Sigurdsson has already scored six goals and provided six assists this season and that kind of form would go down a storm at Goodison Park.

With a contract until the summer of 2020 the Swansea man will not come cheap, if at all, but Everton have the money to make a splash in this transfer window if they wish and it will be interesting to see how things pan out in the coming weeks.
