Everton are set to launch a bid for Lazio midfielder Joaquin Correa.
The Argentina international's agents have been in talks with Everton for some weeks, reports Il Messaggero.
With an agreement close, Everton are now readying an offer of €25m for Lazio's consideration.
Correa made 38 appearances for Lazio last season, with 11 goals and 6 assists.
New Lazio coach Maurizio Sarri is reluctant to lose the midfielder, though at 26 years of age Correa feels ready for a new challenge.
