Everton are reportedly set to step up their interest in signing Kelechi Iheanacho from Leicester City with the Foxes slapping a £15m on the Nigerian.
Iheanacho has just 12 months remaining on his current contract, which has left Leicester in a precarious negotiating position.
Unless a renewal is agreed, the Championship side risk losing him on a free next summer if they don’t cash-in now or in January.
According to Ignazio Genuardi, the Toffees are set to prioritise the signing of the Nigerian following the failure to secure any of their alternative targets.
