Everton have made a move for Lorient striker Dango Ouattara.

Everton have submitted a £17.6million transfer offer for Ouattara, says Foot Mercato.

The 20-year-old has five goals in 11 caps for Burkina Faso and has notched nine goal contributions in 16 Ligue 1 games this term.

Toffees boss Frank Lampard is under pressure to find a solution to his side's lack of goals with Dominic Calvert-Lewin misfiring and Neal Maupay unable to fill the void.
