Everton target Lyon's Alexandre Lacazette?

Everton are considering a move for Lyon player Alexandre Lacazette, a report claims.

The striker has bagged nine goals so far this season in Ligue 1, form which has apparently attracted the attention of Roberto Martinez.

According to SportsDirect News, the Toffees boss wants a new forward to give competition to Romelu Lukaku. However, Arsenal are also interested as they view Lacazette as someone who can fill the void left by Theo Walcott's injury.

On Friday night it was confirmed that Hull City have agreed a fee with Everton for Nikica Jelavic.
