Former Aston Villa attacker Tony Cascarino has named two players that he believes Everton should target in January.

The Toffees are in the mood to strengthen their squad after appointing Italian boss Carlo Ancelotti recently.

And Cascarino believes that Raul Jimenez and Danny Ings are two players who would improve their squad significantly.

"I mentioned Raul Jimenez [of Wolves] for Everton," Cascarino said on talkSPORT.

"Again, I've been saying this for a while, I'd be so tempted to snatch another one away.

"I'd be trying to get Danny Ings out of Southampton. Sorry Southampton fans.

"You're asking me what I'm thinking, who I'd want to go and get.

"I had this conversation with you probably six weeks ago and I said the one person who might keep Southampton up with his goals will be Danny Ings. That's the one I'd be looking at.

"I think he's been terrific, he's had two bad injuries, he's come through it like Callum Wilson has done, he's come through them injuries.

"I think [it was] a major coup, Southampton getting him from Liverpool.

"He's got an amazing attitude and an ability to get goals, predator-type goals, from six and 10 yards out.

"Things are bouncing off keepers and he's there."
