Report: Speculation suggests Everton have submitted a bid for 46-cap international.

With just eight days left before the transfer deadline, Everton has yet to make a signing but is actively identifying potential targets.

One player under consideration is Sunderland’s Dan Neil, although securing his transfer could prove challenging unless his £15m price tag is met.

After Everton’s 1-0 victory over Brighton, manager David Moyes expressed his desire to bring in two experienced players this month.

While he’s looking to sign from the Championship, he also confirmed that the club already has a list of potential targets.

There is speculation that Everton may have already placed a bid for overseas midfielder Angelo Preciado.

According to Sporx, the Toffees are keen on the right-midfielder from Sparta Prague, though they face competition from Brentford and Jose Mourinho’s Fenerbahce.

Sparta Prague has reportedly received an offer from an unnamed English club, which could potentially be Everton.

However, the Czech club rejected the initial offer, meaning Everton would need to improve their bid if they are to secure Preciado’s services.

Other clubs, including Flamengo and Boca Juniors, are also showing interest in the player.

Preciado’s versatility makes him an ideal target for Everton.

The club is in the market for a winger, and with both Ashley Young and Seamus Coleman set to be out of contract in the summer, they could also pursue a right-back.

Preciado is capable of excelling in both positions, making him a valuable addition to David Moyes’ squad.

The Ecuadorian international, who has 46 caps, played a pivotal role in his country’s quarter-final run at the Copa America last summer.

During the tournament, Preciado was deployed as a right-back, a position where he impressed and demonstrated his effectiveness.
