Everton are moving for Southampton midfielder Mario Lemina.

The Daily Echo says they have made an initial enquiry to Saints about Lemina.

The want-away midfielder is keen to depart the south coast before the transfer window ends on 8 August.

And with Everton selling Idrissa Gueye to French giants Paris Saint Germain for £28m, they are on the hunt for potential replacements.

This has led to them getting in contact with Saints over a potential deal for ex-Juventus player Lemina.
