Everton are interested in Sevilla defender Federico Fazio.

The talented Argentine, who can play at centre-half and fullback, is preparing to leave Sevilla at the end of the season.

Barcelona coach Tata Martino rates Fazio highly and hopes to keep him in Spain.

However, Everton boss Roberto Martinez is also keen and AS says contact has already been made with Fazio's camp about the prospect of moving to England in the summer.
