EVERTON are reportedly making a move for Southampton striker Che Adams.
Adams, 26, is a wanted man as Prem rivals Leeds, Wolves and Nottingham Forest also eye up offers.
But the Daily Mail claim the Saints No10 is interested in a move to Goodison Park.
Ralph Hasenhuttl has now squeezed Adams a place further down their pecking order and sides may have a chance to nab him.
Southampton paid around £15million for Adams in 2019.
He has since become a regular in the side – featuring 110 times and scoring 21 goals.
The forward’s form was rewarded with a place in the Scotland national team in time for Euro2020.
However, with the addition of forward Sekou Mara – a £12m signing from Bordeaux – it appears his chances in the first team might be limited.
Leeds are said to be circling too and would like to do business at around £10m.
Adams started his career at Sheffield United and could fancy a return to Yorkshire if it means he gets more game time.

Saints are looking for more of a profit but there is optimism that a compromise figure can be reached with one of the chasing pack.
Meanwhile, the Toffees have completed the signing of Amadou Onana for £33.5million.
The Belgian star, 20, penned a five-year deal at Goodison Park to complete his switch from Lille.
