Southampton captain Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is a target for Everton.

Sky Sports says Everton have identified Hojbjerg as a priority transfer target.

The Blues are looking to strengthen their midfield options and are interested in the Southampton captain, who is out of contract next summer.

Saints would want £35m for Hojbjerg if they were to be tempted into selling him this month.

Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti is in the market for a new midfielder and has also made enquiries after Napoli ace Allan.
