Everton have reportedly reignited their interest in Fiorentina striker Khouma Babacar.
The Toffees were claimed to have made a late swoop for the forward at the back end of the summer transfer window, but failed as they desperately searched for attacking reinforcements.
Everton have already significantly strengthened their front-line this month, though. Cenk Tosun has arrived for £27 million and Theo Walcott also joined for a sum of £20m recently.
However, La Nazione (via Liverpool Echo) report that Everton are hungry to further bolster their attack and will explore the possibility of signing Babacar from Fiorentina.
The Senegalese front man has been heavily linked with a move to Crystal Palace of late but the allure of playing for a club of Everton’s size could come as an attractive proposition for Babacar.
Although he has only netted five times for Fiorentina this season, Babacar would undoubtedly add a different dimension to the current options at Sam Allardyce’s disposal.
