Everton have opened talks to sign Atalanta striker Duvan Zapata, reports the Sunday Mirror, as Frank Lampard looks to bolster his attacking options.

The Toffees dropped to 19th in the league after Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Southampton and have scored just 15 goal all campaign.

It is thought that Everton want a loan deal with an option to buy the Colombian for £15m ($18.4m), with Zapata's price-tag being slashed from Atalanta's £35m valuation given to Newcastle a year ago.

Barca's valuation comes as the club are not currently looking to sell Raphinha this winter, despite his mere three goals in 22 matches across all competitions in 2022-23.
