Everton 'could trigger a £10m release clause in Sam Johnstone's Crystal Palace contract'... amid Man United's ongoing interest in Jordan Pickford

Everton are reportedly eyeing a move for Crystal Palace goalkeeper Sam Johnstone as a contingency should Manchester United follow up on their interest in Jordan Pickford.

The Toffees are yet to receive an enquiry for Pickford from Man United, with the Red Devils searching for a new goalkeeper this summer.

David de Gea is increasingly expected to leave the club, with United confirming last week that discussions were continuing over a new contract as they look to slash his weekly wages from £375,000 to just £200,000.

Reports have claimed Man United could make a £45million bid for Pickford, despite England No 1 signing a new contract with the Merseyside club in February.
