Everton manager Roberto Martinez is reportedly considering making a move for Blackpool winger Thomas Ince in the summer.

The England Under-21 international is believed to have been a target for Premier League clubs for some time, but instead of leaving Bloomfield Road in the summer, Ince decided to stay put.

However, a number of clubs are believed to be keen on signing the 21-year-old in the winter window, one of which is top-flight outfit Swansea City.

It has now emerged that Everton could make a bid for the player at the end of the season if Ince decides to wait until the close of the campaign before leaving Blackpool, according to the Liverpool Echo.

Everton's rivals Liverpool were also previously linked with the player.
