Everton are interested in signing Ivan Toney from Brentford.
The Toffees are aware of their reliance on Dominic Calvert-Lewin for goals.
The 23-year-old has ten goals in ten games this season in the Premier League.
But manager Carlo Ancelotti wants a squad option should he need to rotate his team.
According to Calciomercato, the 24-year-old Toney is someone Everton scouts admire.
He could be Calvert-Lewin's backup come the January transfer window.
