Thursday’s Liverpool Echo speculates 17-year-old PSV Eindhoven playmaker Mohammed Ihattaren could be a potential transfer target for Everton.

Ihattaren was part of the Netherlands team which won the UEFA European Under-17 championship last year.

He has already made 18 appearances for PSV’s first-team and has scored three goals.

The Echo also features former Tottenham and Aston Villa boss Tim Sherwood, who has tipped Bournemouth winger Ryan Fraser as a possible signing for Everton.

Scotland international Fraser’s contract with the Cherries expires at the end of the season.

Meanwhile, the Daily Mail claims Wigan’s 17-year-old striker Joe Gelhardt is wanted by both Everton and Liverpool.

The England Under-18 international is contracted to the Latics until 2021.
