Sandro Ramirez: Everton in talks with Malaga striker and club step up interest in Davy Klaassen

Everton are in talks with Malaga striker Sandro Ramirez as manager Ronald Koeman attempts to boost his striking options.

Sandro, 21, had a superb season with Malaga, scoring 14 goals in La Liga and has a £5.2m buy-out clause after last summer's move from Barcelona.

He had been linked with Atletico Madrid but their transfer ban has opened the door for Everton and Koeman.

Koeman has also stepped up his interest in Ajax captain Davy Klaassen.

Sandro is regarded as an addition to Everton's striking resources, not a replacement for Romelu Lukaku, who continues to be linked with a return to former club Chelsea.
