What the Papers Say (08/06)

Everton are keeping a close eye on striker Jordan Rhodes and right back Yarouba Cissako, according to reports.

Rhodes, 25, has been prolific for Blackburn Rovers and has scored 73 goals in his three seasons at Ewood Park. However, with Rovers slapping a £10 million price tag on the Scottish International, the Toffees may look elsewhere.

The other player rumoured to be on the Goodison Park radar is upcoming starlet Yarouba Cissako. The 20-year old is attracting the likes of Borussia Dortmund and Liverpool, however, he could yet be offered a new deal at Ligue 1 side Monaco.

The youngster was on loan at Belgian club Zulte-Waregem last season, contributing seven assists in 25 games.

According to L’Equipe, the right-back is in contract talks with his current club. His current deal ends in 2016, with Everton among those ready to pounce should the talks break down.
