Everton boss David Moyes has concerns over their talks with Manchester United regarding the sale of Leighton Baines.
The Sunday Mirror says the thought of losing Baines is troubling Goodison Park boss Moyes.
He will seek talks with chairman Bill Kenwright if the likes of Baines and Marouane Fellaini are sold.
Moyes has discussed extending his contract, which has 12 months to run. But he has asked for assurances that he would not have to cash in on his star players to raise money for recruitments.
He has become increasingly disillusioned about working under a budget that doesn't even allow him to spend the cash he generates through player sales.
