Everton have reportedly slapped a £25m price tag on Leighton Baines in an attempt to fend off interest from Manchester United.
A recent report claimed that the champions were preparing a £16m bid for the England international, but the Blues want around £9m more, according to Goal.com.
The Red Devils failed in their attempts to lure Baines to Old Trafford in the summer, but are expected to return for the talented left-back in the January transfer window.
Baines returned to action after a month out with a broken toe in the Blues' 2-1 win against Southampton on December 29.
