Everton boss Allardyce targets West Brom defender Evans, Van Aanholt

Everton boss Sam Allardyce is eyeing West Brom defender Jonny Evans.

New Toffees manager Allardyce will target players with Premier League experience when the winter window opens, says The Sun.

And he has his eye on West Brom centre-back Evans in a £30million deal — after a move to Manchester City collapsed in the summer.

But Northern Ireland international Evans, 29, has also been linked with Arsenal.

Crystal Palace left-back Patrick van Aanholt is on Allardyce's hit-list after working with him at Sunderland and escaping relegation.

And Everton, despite signing Wayne Rooney, are desperate for a striker following their failure to replace Romelu Lukaku's goals.
