Everton are ready to rival Crystal Palace for Newcastle United midfielder Moussa Sissoko, according to L’Equipe, via Get French Football.
Sissoko, 26, is desperate to leave Newcastle this summer after they were relegated to the Championship last season.
Crystal Palace have already earmarked Sissoko after selling Yannick Bolasie to Everton for £25m but the Toffees could be set to inflict further misery on Alan Pardew’s side with a move for the France international.
Since August 2012 only two players have completed more dribbles in the Premier League than Sissoko (271).
