Everton are eyeing Porto midfielder Yacine Brahimi.

Sky Sports says Everton have a strong interest in Brahimi.

Talks between the clubs have progressed well, but convincing the player to move is proving more problematic.

Brahimi's preference is a move to England, but to a club playing in the Champions League.

The Algerian has already rejected a big money offer from China and Porto left him out of their Champions League squad in midweek.
