Everton closing in on Burnley defender Michael Keane - sources
Shaka Hislop feels Jordan Pickford has done enough to warrant a potential starting job at Everton.Everton are closing in on the signing of Michael Keane, sources have told ESPN FC, with Burnley holding out for a £25 million fee.
Keane's future has been the subject of speculation all summer after impressing in the Premier League last season, and with only one year left on his contract Burnley have been braced for interest.
Manchester United were keen on re-signing the England international after initially selling him to Burnley in 2015, but they are no longer looking for defensive reinforcements after signing Victor Lindelof from Benfica.
