Everton and Juventus are reportedly ready to battle for the signing of Valencia striker Rodrigo this summer.
According to reports from Spain, as cited by Italian news outlet Calciomercato, the forward has emerged as a target for Serie A champions Juve, who are looking to reinforce their attacking options.
Everton were linked with a move for Rodrigo earlier on in the year and it seems their interest in the Spanish international remains strong.
The 27-year-old enjoyed a good season in La Liga with Valencia. From 31 starts in the Spanish top-flight, he found the net on 16 occasions, leading to his emergence on the international scene under recently-sacked Spain boss Julen Lopetegui.
Everton will be looking to add extra quality to their attacking ranks this summer and Rodrigo has apparently emerged as a top target, with a move to the Premier League noted as a possibility.
Rodrigo renewed his contract at Valencia last November and is on their books until the summer of 2022. However, with an enquiry from Juventus having reportedly been lodged, the ex-Benfica star could be on the move.
