Sabah report Premier League clubs are showing a strong interest in Besiktas defender Domagoj Vida, and that Everton are currently leading the race to sign the Croatian.

According to Sabah, Besiktas president Fikret Orman is looking to get at least €15m for the player and he’s happy to wait until after the end of the World Cup as he’s hoping Vida’s impressive form could increase his value.
Everton reportedly could face competition from fellow Premier League sides West Ham United and Fulham, but as it stands the Toffees are in pole position to sign the player.
