Samuel Eto'o set for Everton medical today

Samuel Eto'o is set to undergo a medical with Everton. The Daily Mail says the 33-year-old has reached a provisional agreement on a two-year deal after re-opening talks with Everton following the collapse of his move to their neighbours Liverpool.

Eto'o has lowered his wage demands from around £130,000 a week to fit in with Everton's proposals and is due to travel to Merseyside from his Paris home on Monday ahead of a medical in the hope of completing the deal on Wednesday.

Everton had spoken to Eto'o's representatives over a fortnight ago but the player also had interest from Liverpool, AC Milan, Roma and clubs in Qatar. Yet he and his agent Claudio Vigorelli have decided Everton would be the better football option.
