The Toffees are said to be suitors of Yarmolenko, 26, and are keen on landing him this January.

The Mail on Sunday claim Everton boss Roberto Martinez is wary that Yarmolenko's transfer value with rocket after Euro 2016.

 

Yarmolenko is expected to be included in Ukraine's squad for the tournament in France next summer, where they will play Germany, Northern Ireland and Poland.

Everton will reportedly only go in for the ace once Naismith's future at Goodison Park has been resolved.

According to the claims, Naismith is keen to leave Everton for Norwich, with the promise of game time a key factor in that decision.

 

Everton are holding out for £8m for the Scotland international - a figure Norwich bosses are expected to accept as they seek to remain in the Premier League.

Naismith has scored just four goals in 13 appearances for the Toffees this season, including a hat-trick against Chelsea back in September.
