Journalist Fabrizio Romano has claimed that Everton could be set for a boost amid their interest in Oleksandr Zinchenko.

Already in the transfer market, the Toffees have been reported to have a keen interest in signing the Manchester City man, and it looks as though that deal could hinge on a domino effect occurring.

Indeed, Romano has explained that if City can sign Brighton & Hove Albion defender Marc Cucurella, Everton may then be free to make their move.

Talking about it all on his YouTube channel, the journalist revealed his understanding of how the situation could play out in the coming weeks.

He said: “Marc Cucurella is the player that Manchester City want and Pep Guardiola wants.

“And then, Zinchenko [is] part of the domino. because if Cucurella arrives, Zinchenko has [a] very good chance to leave Manchester City this summer, with Everton really, really keen on signing him. Frank Lampard is a big fan.”
