Everton are believed to be interested in Leeds United full-back Sam Byram.
The Toffees are eyeing 21-year old Byram as a possible replacement for Seamus Coleman, should the Irish international depart for Manchester United this summer.
Everton have publicly stated their desire to keep Coleman at Goodison Park, but according to express.co.uk, that has not stopped the Toffees considering alternatives should United table an offer that is too good to knock back.
Byram has reportedly also received interest from Sunderland and Newcastle United.
