Everton 'advance' in James Garner transfer talks with Man United (reliability: 5 stars)

According to The Athletic, a tier-one source, Everton are the most 'advanced' in negotiations with Manchester United for James Garner after the young midfielder was put up for sale by John Murtough.

Garner was a driving force behind Nottingham Forest's promotion to the Premier League, playing all 44 games. However, an injury ruled him out of action during pre-season.

He was unable to make an impression on Erik ten Hag, who has now signed Casemiro. This means Garner is not expected to have a big role in the boss' plans.

Amid interest from Forest and other Premier League clubs, now Everton are nearing an advanced stage in discussions with United.

The Toffees would have to pay just £14 million to sign the immensely talented youngster.
