Everton eyeing Leicester striker Islam Slimani as Giroud alternative

Everton are eyeing Leicester City striker Islam Slimani.

The Sunday Express says Everton boss Ronald Koeman is still chasing another striker and hasn't dropped his interest in Arsenal's 30-year-old Olivier Giroud.

The striker has two years left to run on his contract but the arrival of fellow Frenchman Alexandre Lacazette, 26, from Lyon has placed a question mark over his future.
