Everton reportedly have eyes on one of Sevilla’s players.

Sevilla are showing an interest in Everton striker Sandro Ramirez, reports the Daily Mail (live blog entry 16:47).

Sandro scored 16 goals in 31 games for Malaga last season, but has struggled to replicate his previous form since joining Everton in a £5.2 million summer deal.

The Barcelona academy product has found the net just once in 15 outings for his new employers, and could slide further down the Toffees pecking order should Cenk Tosun arrive from Besiktas.

Malaga, along with fellow La Liga outfit Valencia, have already been linked with January moves for Sandro, who it is claimed is still rated by Everton.

The Toffees though could be more inclined to let the 22-year-old join Sevilla, considering they are said to have held talks about signing Rojiblancos midfielder Steven N’Zonzi.

Steven N'Zonzi of Sevilla FC looks on during the UEFA Champions League match between Sevilla FC and NK Maribor at Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan on September 26, 2017 in Seville, Spain.

N’Zonzi, who played under Everton boss Sam Allardyce at Blackburn Rovers, is said to be valued at £25 million by Sevilla.

The report adds the Andalusians ‘may propose an initial loan [for Sandro] at first’.

A swap deal though, may not be out of the question.

Could Everton use Sandro as a makeweight in the deal for N’Zonzi?
