Everton reignite interest in La Liga defender

Everton have reignited their interested in Espanyol defender David López, according to MailOnline.

The Toffees were first interested in the 28-year centre-back in January, so claimed Mundo Deportivo, and now the club are revisiting their former target.

López, who has a £35million release clause in his Espanyol contract, is versatile and can play across the back-line and in midfield.

The Barcelona based club are also said to be keen on heavily reducing the wage bill this summer, so Everton could hope to land López for less than his release clause.

Fulham boss Slaviša Jokanović is also interested in moving for the Spaniard, with the Serb keen to strengthen his side ahead of their return to the Premier League.
