Everton are huge favourites to sign Malaga centre-forward Sandro Ramirez, according to the latest betting odds. 

Leading bookmaker Sky Bet have priced the 21-year-old La Liga attacker at 11/8 to make a switch to Goodison Park before September 3,.

Everton are a long way clear in the betting race, with their closest rivals Arsenal priced at a distant 10/1.

The Barcelona academy product recently concluded an impressive season, helping his team secure a respectable eleventh place finish by scoring 14 goals from his 30 La Liga encounters.

Ramirez came through the ranks at Barca, scoring seven goals in 32 matches for the senior side added with the fact that the highly-rated youngster has a Champions League medal and two Spanish titles to his name.

There is the big possibility that Ronald Koeman will be looking to add firepower up front this summer, with his main man Romelu Lukaku seemingly heading for the exit door.

The Belgium international, who struck 25 league goals this season, recently stated that he has reached an agreement with another Premier League club.

Lukaku’s potential departure would love a big void in Everton’s attack, especially considering that they have the possibility of Europa League football next season.

The Merseyside club secured a top seven finish this term and if they are able to qualify for the group stages via a two-legged play-off then they will be in for a tough and gruelling season.
