Everton made a late attempt for Southampton fullback Kyle Walker-Peters.

The Telegraph says Southampton rejected an approach from Everton for Walker-Peters in the summer transfer window.

The Toffees wanted the 24-year-old to provide cover for Seamus Coleman at right-back, but the Saints refused to sanction his departure.

Walker-Peters started 30 Premier League games for Southampton last season and remains a key member of Ralph Hassunhuttl's squad.
