Everton are still in the hunt for Barcelona defender Yerry Mina, Sky Sports have reported.

The Colombian was one of the stars of the World Cup in Russia where he scored three goals on top of assured displays throughout the tournament.

The Toffees have already signed a defender from the Catalan giants when they brought in left-back Lucas Digne.

Manager Marco Silva is desperately looking for a high profile centre-back after losing Ramiro Funes Mori to Villarreal and sending Ashley Williams on a season-long loan to Stoke.

Mina fits the bill perfectly but should cost the Liverpool club £28m if the deal is agreed.
