Salernitana are eyeing Everton defender Michael Keane.

TV Oggi Salerno says Salernitana sporting director Morgan de Sanctis has 'thought about' a move for the centre-back in recent months. The report goes on to claim that the Serie A club have the former England international on their list of possible targets for the summer.

Keane joined Everton from Burnley for £25million in the club's record-breaking summer of spending in 2017. The defender's contract at Goodison Park runs until the summer of 2025.

The centre-back made 30 or more Premier League games in each of his first five seasons at Everton but had been restricted to a mere 22 minutes of action off the bench at Brentford in August this term under Frank Lampard, and had been braced for a potential loan exit in the January transfer window.

However, the appointment of Sean Dyche, under whose management at Burnley he earned his move to Goodison, has given the England international a fresh start and he has been picked alongside his former Clarets centre-back partner James Tarkowski for the past three matches.
