EVERTON are set to enter the race for former Bournemouth star Arnaut Danjuma.
Under-pressure Frank Lampard is looking for more edge up front with his goal-shy Toffees finding themselves in another relegation battle.
They are now reportedly one of a number of teams in for Danjuma, according to the Mail.
The 25-year-old has improved since leaving the Vitality after failing to score a single goal in 14 Premier league appearances three seasons ago.
The winger is now thriving at Villarreal and proving to be a regular threat.
He netted 16 goals in 34 appearances in La Liga and the Champions League last season.

Danjuma could be the perfect antidote for Everton who have lacked threat going forward.
Only Nottingham Forest and Wolves have scored fewer goals in the Premier League than the Toffees.
But they are one of a few teams who could pounce for the Villarreal man this month.
GiveMeSport report that the attacker is Unai Emery’s “top choice” to bring to Aston Villa.

The ex-Arsenal boss is looking to bolster his attacking options and add depth out wide.
He managed Danjuma during his two years in charge of Villarreal.
West Ham have also been strongly linked to the attacker.
The Hammers find themselves fourth-bottom and struggling for form this season and were believed to be interested in Danjuma during the summer.
The Dutch international had also once caught the eye of Manchester United, according to reports.
