Everton are chasing Bordeaux striker Diego Rolan.

Italian transfer expert Alfredo Pedulla reports Everton have launched a €15 million bid for Rolan.

Bordeaux management met yesterday to consider Everton's proposal and are ready to sell.

The French giants had initially been seeking €20 million for Rolan, but have dropped that valuation to €18 million.

Everton chiefs are confident reaching a compromise over a fee, with talks to continue today.
