Everton could be set for a summer move for highly-rated Marseille youngster Georges-Kevin Nkoudou, according to reports.
The two-footed France under-21 international winger has scored 10 goals in 40 appearances from the left wing for the Ligue 1 giants this season, bringing the player to the attention of a number of Premier League clubs, including the Toffees.
The Blues are believed to be in the market for a new left winger this summer, with veteran playmakers Steven Pienaar and Leon Osman set to exit the Goodison Park outfit during the close season.
And Le 10 Sport claim that Roberto Martinez’s is currently at the front of the queue in the race to sign the £15 million-rated talent.
Marseille, who are already in danger of losing key front man Michy Batshuayi during the window, are reluctant to sell another star player- one they feel could yet develop into an even greater financial asset- yet could be forced into selling Nkoudou after a poor season in which they currently sit 13th in the Ligue 1 table.
