Everton have shown interest in Manchester City full-back Oleksandr Zinchenko.

Despite never making more than 20 appearances in a campaign, Zinchenko has won four Premier League titles with Man City since signing in 2016.
He started his career as an attacking midfielder, but has primarily been used as a Left Back by Pep Guardiola at City.

A move away from the Etihad could see Zinchenko back in his preferred position, and he would likely be given much more game time by the Toffees.
The signing would also be a good move for Everton as they look to avoid another relegation scrap net season.
Tottenham midfielder Harry Winks is another option for Everton. He has been mentioned as a possible makeweight in any transfer for Richarlison.
