Everton are closing on a deal for Malaga striker Sandro Ramirez.

The former Barcelona attacker has been a revelation for Malaga this season and attracted interest from home and abroad.

In England, Newcastle, Liverpool, Stoke City, Tottenham and Southampton have all made enquiries after Sandro.

However, The Times says Everton are now in advanced talks to sign the striker.

Everton will meet his €6 million buyout clause and there's an acceptance at Malaga that Sandro will move to Merseyside as soon as the summer market opens.
