Everton are stepping up talks to sign Barcelona fullback Lucas Digne this summer, according to The Independent.
The report claims that Everton are moving along with their negotiations to sign Digne, as they look to end their pursuit of a new left-back.
Everton are thought to have made a €22m offer for the defender, who looks set to leave Barcelona.
Digne has fallen out of favour in Spain and Everton have offered him the chance of regular first-team football.
Juventus are also said to be monitoring the situation as they consider joining the race for the Frenchman.
Alex Sandro’s future is up in the air, amid interest from PSG and Manchester United, and Digne is being looked at as a possible replacement for the Brazillian.
Everton are also looking to sign Barcelona central defender Yerry Mina, who impressed for Colombia at the World Cup in Russia, although Wolves have now joined the race.
