Everton have competition for Watford midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure.

The Frenchman is someone Carlo Ancelotti wants to sign for the Toffees, despite Allan arriving from Napoli.

Doucoure wants to leave Watford, as they are relegated to the Championship.

And the Evening Standard says Monaco is willing to sign the player as well.

The Ligue 1 team needs a central midfielder and believes Doucoure is the ideal fit.

Watford will be hoping to get a bidding war going to get as much money from a possible sale.

They want over £20 million for Doucoure.
