Everton are interested in bringing French defender Yohan Tavares to Goodison Park, according to reports.
The club, who are believed to have been to see the centre-back on three occasions, have prepared a £500,000 offer to secure his services from Portuguese outfit Beira Mar, according to The Sun.
The Frenchman's current contract is understood to include a clause which states that he must be allowed to leave if a club from a superior league makes an offer.
Tavares has also been linked with a move to Serie A outfit Palermo, as well as to the Bundesliga.
