Manchester City are interested in Evertonâs Iliman Ndiaye as they look for replacements for the departed duo of Savio and Omar Marmoush.
City are short of options on the flanks after Tottenham bought Savio, for an initial fee of ÂŁ75m, and loaned Marmoush, with an obligation to purchase him for ÂŁ60m.
The FA Cup holders do have one arrival lined up after agreeing a ÂŁ32m fee with Palmeiras for the Brazilian winger Allan.
But they are also considering Ndiaye, who has scored 15 Premier League goals in his two seasons with Everton.
A bid for the Senegal international could come with the possibility of Jack Grealish going to the Merseyside club as part of the deal.
Grealish was borrowed by Everton last season and David Moyes has been hoping to bring back the ÂŁ100m man, who is the last year of his contract at City.
But while Moyes has already signed two wingers this summer, in Tyrique George and Brennan Johnson, the Everton manager believes he needs more players and said his squad is smaller than it was last season.
At City, meanwhile, Marmoush and Savio both made 36 appearances last season and, while Jeremy Doku and Antoine Semenyo look the first-choice wingers, they are looking to add options.
City have spent around ÂŁ220m this summer, principally on midfielders Elliot Anderson and Ayyoub Bouaddi, which would rise to over ÂŁ250m with Allan.
They have brought in almost ÂŁ290m, which would rise towards ÂŁ350m when Marmoushâs sale goes through.
