Bristol City's young versatile defender James Wilson looks destined to join Everton in a deal worth £500,000.
Everton boss David Moyes is set to win the race for the 19-year-old, ahead of North London giants Arsenal and Tottenham.
The Wales U19 captain has attracted attention from the Gunners and Spurs during an impressive loan deal at Brentford, but Moyes is reportedly desperate to push through a deal to land the highly-rated defender.
With Lee Trundle already heading out of the exit door to join Leeds on loan, the next Robins player expected to leave is star midfielder Marvin Elliot. The 24-year-old is desperate to test his skills in the Premier League, although Championship leaders Wolves look likely to beat Portsmouth to a £2m deal.
City boss Gary Johnson, however, has confirmed that he has not received any offers and that his star is staying put.
He said: "There have been no offers for Marvin Elliott from any club and I certainly haven't received a phone call from either Portsmouth or Wolves. It's the silly season and this is something we're going to have to live with for the next few weeks."
