Everton are being linked with a variety of players ahead of the January transfer window opening in under a fortnight, while Lucas Digne is reportedly interesting Manchester City.

These are your Everton transfer rumours rated on Sunday, December 20.

Lucas Digne wanted

Who?

Left-back Digne, who is among the best in his position in the world.

What?

Man City and Pep Guardiola would like to sign the full-back because they are not convinced that Benjamin Mendy is the right option long-term.

That is according to the Daily Mail, who say Ajax star Nicolas Tagliafico is also on the shortlist of options for the Etihad club.

Isco battle

Who?

Real Madrid attacking midfielder Isco, who could follow James Rodriguez to Goodison Park, according to various reports.

What?

AC Milan, Sevilla and Arsenal are the sides that Everton will need to hold off if they are to get this deal over the line, says Spanish outlet Sport.

The cost of the transfer is said to be €30-40million, with hefty wages on top of that for the cultured attacking midfielder who turns 29 in four months.

Leicester winger available

Who?

Demarai Gray, the former England U21 international.

What?

90Min claim that Leicester are preparing to sell their player ahead of losing him for nothing next summer on a free transfer.

Tottenham and Everton are thought to be keen on him with a cut-price deal a possibility, according to the article.

Blues offer 'expected'

Who?

Sami Khedira, the Juventus defensive midfielder.

What?

According to Italian daily Gazzetta dello Sport, cited by Inside Futbol, he is interested in a move to England and is 'expecting an offer' from Everton.

Norwich and Watford are also said to be in the hunt, though that would be ambitious to get him into the second tier.

Everton would likely be a more attractive proposition for the 33-year-old.

Godfrey move repeat?

Who?

Max Aarons, who was linked with Bayern Munich in the summer, is reportedly interesting Everton.

What?

Could the Norwich man copy Ben Godfrey and move to Goodison Park? Football League World certainly think so.

Barcelona were also said to be keen in the last transfer window, so competition could be high for the player, though they signed Sergino Dest instead.

Aarons would likely cost at least £20m, with Norwich aiming to come back to the top flight next season and the right-back a key man for their promotion push.
