Media reports claim that Everton are keeping tabs on Christoph Baumgartner, who currently plays as a midfielder for Leipzig. The move is still in the early stages, but interest appears to be growing. Everton are still pushing to finalise terms. However, Villarreal and Crystal Palace are still watching closely and may return with offers of their own. Everton are only scoring 1.17 goals per game (34 in 29) this season, which suggests they need more creativity in the middle. Christoph Baumgartner would be seen as the link to raise the tempo and feed the attack. Leipzig continue to be linked with Rocco Reitz while Everton are also rumoured to be tracking John Stones, Liam Delap and Harry Wilson.
