Everton boss David Moyes is moving for Valencia fullback Miguel.
The News of the World says the 29-year-old is available for around £5million from the cash-strapped Spanish side and Goodison chief David Moyes is leading the chase.
Tottenham had shown an interest in the player - who has 50 caps for Portugal - but have cooled on a bid after signing Kyle Naughton and Kyle Walker from Sheffield United last week.
