Chelsea striker Liam Delap has emerged as a potential target for Everton during the ongoing transfer window.
The Englishman had an injury-plagued debut season with the Blues last term. He scored just two goals from 42 appearances.
The Blues are now seriously considering his future and are open to parting ways with him for the right transfer fee.
A £40m figure has been mentioned to potential suitors, and Everton are one of those who are weighing up a formal proposal.
Beto and Thierno Barry are the striking options for the Toffees, but the former has been touted to return to Serie A soon.
His departure could pave the way for a new recruit, and it appears Delap is the prime target on the Toffees' shortlist to replace him.
Delap was under the club's consideration last summer when he was at Ipswich Town, but the striker chose to join the Blues.
His time at Chelsea has been quite forgettable and he could be tempted to move on if he is assured regular playing time next term.
