According to reports from Italian media outlet Tuttomercatoweb, Everton have made the first move to sign AS Roma Cengiz Under.
The Toffees have submitted a bid in the region of £24.7m for the 21-year-old winger, but it has been rejected.
The Turkish international joined Roma in 2017 and was superb during the 2018-19 campaign. He scored six goals and provided 11 assists, and has caught the attention of heavyweight Premier League clubs including Arsenal and Tottenham.
Roma are reluctant to lose him and are demanding a fee in the north of £44m.
