Toffees manager Carlo Ancelotti is eager to put pressure on Jordan Pickford in goal with Romero seen as an ideal option.

The Red Devils shot-stopper is also attracting interest from Leeds United.

Messi signing key to Guardiola's future

Manchester City believe manager Pep Guardiola will re-sign with the club for a further three years if they manage to sign Lionel Messi, claims the Mirror.

Villa circling for Arsenal's Martinez

Aston Villa are set to offer Arsenal ï¿¡10 million (€11m/$13m) for goalkeeper Emi Martinez, according to the Independent.

The Gunners, however, are expected to demand up to double that fee if they are to let the Argentine leave.

Man Utd closing in on Van de Beek

Manchester United have emerged as favourites to sign Ajax midfielder Donny van de Beek, claims ESPN.

The Argentine looks bound for the Etihad

Barcelona believe Lionel Messi will sign for Manchester City and they are hoping to agree a ï¿¡250 million (€280m/$333m) deal for the Argentine, claims the Mirror.

The revised transfer fee comes as City and Messi continue to investigate the chances of him leaving Camp Nou for free.

Barca are willing to accept players as part of the deal but want at least ï¿¡120m (€134m/$160m) in cash so they can rebuild their squad.
