The Blues are keen to avoid another transfer saga like last summer

According to the Daily Mail, Everton want a quick solution to the John Stones potential exit from the club.

The Blues defender has been linked with an exit for several months, with Manchester City among those particularly keen on him.

New manager Pep Guardiola is thought to view the England international as the perfect addition to his new look City defence.

So far no offer has been made for him, with Everton thought to be holding out for as much as £50 million for their man.

That is a price that even City are reluctant to pay and instead they are hoping to negotiate a player plus cash deal for the defender.

Talks are on-going, but according to the Daily Mail, Everton are determined to get them concluded as quickly as possible.

The club, Ronald Koeman and the player are keen to avoid another drawn out transfer saga like the one they dealt with last summer when Chelsea were keen on his services.

With them standing firm on their asking price though, the onus is very much on Manchester City to get the deal done quickly.

The Blues have completed a move to make the Leicester City man their Director of Football

Everton have completed a deal with Leicester City for scout Steve Walsh, according to the Daily Mail.

The Blues had targeted the Foxes man earlier last week and saw their initial approach for his services rejected by the Premier League champions.

However, Walsh was keen on the move and personally asked Leicester City owners the Srivaddhanaparabha family to sanction the switch.

They eventually let him talk to the Toffees and the Daily Mail report he has made the move, with the Foxes expected to demand compensation for their man.

He will take up the newly created Director of Football role at Goodison Park, with the hope being he will be the link between the board and manager Ronald Koeman.

The Dutchman has worked with a Director of Football throughout his managerial career and was keen to get a similar set up created on Merseyside.

With Walsh now appointed, he will be hoping that they can step up their pursuit of players this summer.

So far Maarten Stekelenburg is the only new face to arrive but Koeman is eager to get several new signings secured.
