Everton join the race to sign Alfie Mawson

Everton are the latest team to express an interest in Swansea City defender Alfie Mawson, as per the Mirror.

Sam Allardyce is reportedly ready to spend upwards of £50 million to secure a double deal for both Mawson and Watford’s Abdoulaye Doucoure.

With ageing central defenders in the former of Ashley Williams and Phil Jagielka, Allardyce is keen to sign another central defender.

Mawson has impressed this season in a struggling Swansea side who sit bottom of the Premier League after the festive period.

Doucoure, who has impressed for Watford under Marco Silva, has been identified as a cheaper alternative to Steven N’Zonzi, who has been linked with a move to Goodison Park ever since Allardyce took the job.

Allardyce has turned Everton’s season around after some early relegation fears but wants to ensure a strong finish.
