Everton boss Dave Moyes faces a battle for USA international midfielder Michael Bradley.
The Mirror says Moyes will have to come up with £4.5m for Bradley - after German giants Hamburg moved into the signing race.
Moyes is keen on signing the U.S. star from Dutch side Heerenveen. However, Hamburg want the 20-year-old as replacement for Rafael van der Vaart, who they will lose in the summer.
