Everton face a struggle to attract Michy Batshuayi though, as Monaco are also interested and the striker wants a move to Ligue 1.
According to a report on TeamTalk, Everton want Michy Batshuayi, if they are to sell Romelu Lukaku to Chelsea this summer.
Everton are loathed to lose Lukaku, as they know how hard he could be to replace.
And Ronald Koeman reportedly feels that Batshuayi’s arrival could cover for the void that the Belgian international’s departure would leave.
Chelsea are said to be willing to involved Batshuayi in a deal, which would also require them to offer a significant amount of money.
However, Batshuayi is said to prefer a move to Monaco, with the Ligue 1 side also interested in him.
Lukaku scored the bulk of Everton’s goals this season, so his departure would be a major blow.
If Everton do bring in a replacement for Lukaku this summer, he will be under serious pressure to hit the ground running.
Batshuayi hit five goals in 20 Premier League appearances for Chelsea this season, with most of his game-time coming as a substitute.
