Southampton 'place £40million price-tag on Kyle Walker-Peters' to fend off interest from Frank Lampard's Everton... as Saints' contract talks stall with England international

Southampton have slapped a £40million price-tag on full-back Kyle Walker-Peters amid interest from a number of Premier League clubs.

Frank Lampard's Everton are said to be leading the race for the England international's signature after his contract negotiations with the Saints came to a stand-still.

Ralph Hasenhüttl's side are still hopeful of retaining the 25-year-old and have upped Walker-Peter's transfer value in an attempt to deter suitors from bidding for him.
