Everton are reportedly weighing up a surprise swoop for free agent Jamie Vardy as they scramble to address their striker shortage, according to Sky Sports' transfer round-up. The move comes after the Toffees' pursuit of Folarin Balogun collapsed, leaving manager David Moyes short of attacking options and exploring alternative solutions on the free-agent market.
Elsewhere in Sky Sports' paper talk, Manchester United are said to have decided against signing RB Leipzig full-back David Raum, despite earlier interest in strengthening their defensive options.
Chelsea, meanwhile, could turn their attention to Georginio Wijnaldum after missing out on a replacement for Enzo Fernandez, with the Blues reportedly needing to bolster their midfield following his departure.
On the international front, Thomas Tuchel has reportedly launched a review into England's recent performances, examining what went wrong as the manager looks to fine-tune his squad and tactics ahead of upcoming fixtures.
All of the above remain speculative reports rather than confirmed deals, with Sky Sports stressing that talks and interest levels vary across each story as the transfer window rumour mill continues to churn.
