Everton FC transfer news: Toffees to swoop for Atletico Madrid striker Kevin Gameiro in January?

Everton are ready to push through a January move for Atletico Madrid striker Kevin Gameiro.

The Toffees are on the hunt for a new forward having failed to adequately replace Romelu Lukaku following his move to Manchester United this summer.

Everton had been interested in signing Diego Costa, but he will instead leave Chelsea in January to join Atletico Madrid.

And so, according to AS, Everton are prepared to go all out for Gameiro when the transfer window reopens.

Costa's move to Atletico means the Frenchman's first-team opportunities could shrink at the Spanish club.
