Everton linked with Man Utd reject Ljajic

Everton are being linked with Manchester United reject Adem Ljajic.

The Serbian youngster has rebuilt his career at Fiorentina after seeing United pull out of a pre-contract deal last season.

Now 19, Ljajic is drawing comparisons with Kaka and has established himself as a first choice in coach Sinisa Mihajlovic's Fiorentina plans.

Everton boss David Moyes is keeping tabs on Ljajic's progress and sees the youngster as a direct replacement for contract rebel Steven Pienaar.

A January bid of £8 million has been mooted.
