Everton eye Sam Byram move

Everton will look to acquire the services of Leeds United defender Sam Byram, if Manchester United step up their pursuit for Seamus Coleman this summer.

Coleman has been a consistent performer for the Toffees, but the Republic of Ireland international could seek a fresh challenge away from Goodison Park due to the lack of progress in recent seasons.

According to The Telegraph, Everton could seek to bring in Sam Byram from Leeds, should the Irishman decide to seal a move to Old Trafford in the summer transfer window.

Coleman is into the final year of his contract, and the Toffees may decide to allow his sale rather than lose him for a Bosman fee next summer.
