Premier League side Everton are interested in signing Lazio forward Joaquin Correa, whose move to Paris Saint-Germain seems to have collapsed.

As reported by Italian newspaper Corriere dello Sport (via LazioNews24) earlier today, the Biancocelesti are looking to sell the 26-year-old Argentinian forward this summer, hoping to generate funds from his sale in order to strengthen the squad in other areas.

With the talks between the two clubs hitting a standstill, it seemed that Correa may remain with the Roman club, but now Everton have expressed their interest.

The next few days could be decisive for Correa, as the two clubs will now discuss the situation and see if a deal can be reached.
