According to reports, Everton are joint favourites along with Bayern Munich to sign striker Edin Dzeko from Roma during the January transfer window.
Everton have been short of firepower up front after they lost Romelu Lukaku to Manchester United during the summer and Dzeko could be an attractive addition to their side considering that he is a proven scorer at Premier League level, having previously been on the books of Manchester City.
Dzeko has also been in good form this season and his performances have helped Roma to reach the last 16 of the Champions League. He has so far scored 11 goals from 21 appearances in all competitions this season.
Popular bookmakers Bookmaker have placed the Toffees as well as Bayern Munich with a 6/1 chance of landing Dzeko before the end of next month while Real Madrid are third favourites having been listed at 8/1.
