Everton are looking to bolster their wing position this summer and have earmarked Lille’s highly-rated Nicolas Pepe as their first-choice target.
Earlier this month, Liverpool Echo reported that Marco Silva wants to add the exciting attacker to his side but that his high price tag is proving to be a stumbling block.
The Toffees are determined to test Lille’s resolve this summer, but there are other potential suitors as well.
According to a report from Il Napolista, Serie A giants Napoli have already made the first move for the winger, having lodged a bid in the region of £45 million.
