Everton are prepared to reignite their interest in Harry Souttar after the World Cup.

The Australian was a standout performer for his country, as they made it into the last-16 of the showpiece event in Qatar.

Thanks to 1-0 wins against Tunisia and Denmark, Australia surprisingly made it out of the group stages, with Souttar impressing.

Per the Daily Mail, Everton boss Frank Lampard may now go in for the 24-year-old.

Souttar plays for Stoke City in the Championship, but Everton believe he can make the step up to the Premier League.

However, Lampard may have to sell to buy given Everton's financial constraints at present.
