FABIAN DELPH is being hunted by Everton in a move that would boost his Premier League career — and save his England hopes.
Midfield dynamo Delph is coming into his last season at Manchester City and could be tempted by a lot more game time at Goodison Park.
The former Leeds and Aston Villa star, 29, has only been on the fringes under City boss Pep Guardiola and it looks like his spell at the Etihad is up.
Everton could snatch Delph for a fee of about £16million.
That would give manager Marco Silva an experienced player to bolster his midfield — and because of Delph’s versatility, it would also mean the Toffees have cover at left-back.
Delph is further away from the City side than ever with the £63m signing of Rodri to cram their midfield.
