Everton are interested in Wigan Athletic goalkeeper Sam Tickle.

The Sun says Blues boss Sean Dyche is aware of Tickle's progress and has had scouts posted to watch him this season.

The 21-year-old is enjoying a breakthrough season at the DW Stadium this term.

He has attracted attention from other clubs but Everton could make a move if they can find the funds.

Tickle would arrive as Jordan Pickford's understudy.
