Everton, Crystal Palace challenge for Lille duo

Everton are eyeing a double raid on Lille this month.

The Mirror says Crystal Palace and Everton are set to splash the cash at struggling Lille.

The Eagles are interested in Cameroon midfielder Ibrahim Amadou. The strong-running 24-year-old has caught the eye this season despite Lille's woes.

The Toffees also have an interest in Amadou – who can play at centre-half – while they weigh up a move for his team-mate Adama Soumaoro.

Defender Soumaoro has been injured and has only just returned to action. Both players are on offer at £15million.
