Everton chasing Celtic winger James Forrest

Celtic winger James Forrest is a target for Everton boss Roberto Martinez.

The People says Martinez is turning his attention to Forrest after learning that Barcelona want Gerard Deulofeu back in Spain.

The 22-year-old had an injury-hit campaign but Martinez thinks he could give him the pace and wizardry that Barcelona starlet Deulofeu provided on loan.

Celtic would want around £7million for Forrest, who has been tipped for the top for years, but the Toffees are keener to strike a loan deal.
