Sevilla and Villarreal have joined Valencia in the chase for Sandro Ramirez.
The striker continues to struggle for first-team opportunities in his debut season at Everton, scoring just once in 15 appearances across three managers.
A return to La Liga appears increasingly likely for Sandro, with Malaga and Valencia among those expressing an interest in the 22-year-old.
But reports in Spain claim that competition for his signature is intensifying.
According to Radio Marca, Sevilla have attempted to sound out the Blues over Sandro’s availability during the January transfer window.
Villarreal are also said to be pursuing the Spain under-21 international as they face up to losing Cederic Bakambu, who is set to join Chinese side Beijing Guoan.
