Onuoha on Everton list
Everton have asked Manchester City about defender Nedum Onuoha after failing to sign Kyle Naughton from Sheffield United.
When City made their rejected £15million bid for Joleon Lescott last week, Everton enquired about Onuoha’s availability.
England Under-21 defender Onuoha is also interesting Aston Villa and Spurs, with new contract talks at City stalling for months.
Everton are also working on a £6m deal for Swedish international Rasmus Elms and full-back Tony Hibbert welcomes the challenge from any new signings.
“When you play for Everton you have to show you deserve to be in the team, you must fight all the time,” he said.
“If you want to be successful, you need two players for every position and it is good to see Everton linked with outstanding young players.”
