Everton are reportedly willing to match a massive bid from Juventus for Newcastle's Moussa Sissoko.

The Italian giants are preparing a £35m for the mercurial midfielder, who was an impressive figure for France at Euro2016, should Paul Pogba's world record-setting transfer to Manchester United go through and a number of media outlets, including Paul Joyce of the Express and The Guardian's Andy Hunter, claim that Farhad Moshiri is prepared to offer the same amount.

Assuming both bids are accepted, the 26-year-old would have to choose between remaining in the Premier League and joining the changing times at Goodison Park or take up the offer of Champions League football and the chance to play in Serie A with Juve.

MailOnline, meanwhile, suggest that Juventus are also looking at Nemanja Matic as a potential replacement should Pogba's switch to Old Trafford go through.
