Everton have reportedly made Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy their number one summer transfer target.
According to a report from the Mirror, the Toffees want to land the 31-year-old at the end of the season after previously expressing an interest.
Vardy was linked with a move away from the King Power Stadium in the summer, with Everton one of a number of sides credited with an interest.
The club held talks this week to discuss summer transfer plans and the striker, who has netted 13 times this season came out at the top of the list.
The report suggests that Vardy would be keen to make the move happen as he would be in line for a huge pay rise, earning a reported £150,000-a-week at the club.
The Toffees are also hoping that Steve Walsh, formerly of Leicester, can play a big role in making the deal happen this summer.
Everton have been lacking goals this season and Cenk Tosun’s inability to adapt to the Premier League means they’re likely to be in the market for a forward this summer.
