Everton boss Ronald Koeman is still weighing up a move for Burnley striker Andre Gray in the summer. The 25-year-old has 12 months left on his existing deal.

According to The Mirror, Koeman could lodge an attempt for Gray in the coming weeks despite the club's recent capture of Sandro Ramirez.

The ex-Barcelona graduate has inked personal terms with the Merseyside outfit but Malaga are still solving third-party issues before sanctioning the deal.

Romelu Lukaku is due to push for a big club move during the summer transfer window, and Koeman appears well prepared for his exit after having already boosted his striking department.

Everton have already recruited the likes of Jordan Pickford and Davy Klaassen to their ranks, and there could be several more arrivals with Koeman looking to make progress in league and Europe next season.

The Merseyside outfit start their season in July due to their Europa League commitments, and Koeman wants to complete most of his transfer business before the qualification stage.

Burnley are likely to demand a fee in excess of £10m for Gray, who has stalled on talks over a contract extension.
