Everton could make late move for 'fabulous' Premier League star at Goodison Park

Everton boss Frank Lampard could seal a reunion with Chelsea ace Billy Gilmour as his current employers are ‘definitely interested’ in sanctioning a loan move amid links to Goodison Park, according to Daily Star journalist Paul Brown.

Protests were held outside the Toffees’ home at the weekend, with supporters imploring owner Farhad Moshiri to sell the club or replace the board, but Lampard has until September 1 to raise spirits with fresh faces coming through the door.

Gilmour is back at Chelsea after spending last season on loan with Norwich City, where he was unable to avoid relegation to the Championship.

However, he may be set for another switch away from Stamford Bridge as, according to talkSPORT, Everton chief Lampard has been given the green light to make a move for the central midfielder.

The report suggests Gilmour is keen to work under Lampard again after he handed the 15-cap Scotland international his Premier League debut during his reign in west London.

It is understood that a number of clubs have entered negotiations to sign Gilmour on a temporary basis, with Everton among those pushing for a deal.

The 21-year-old is facing an uncertain future after Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel removed him from the first-team squad having initially travelled to the United States for the club’s pre-season tour.

Brown understands that Chelsea are looking to send Gilmour out on another loan and Everton could be a possible destination.

The journalist feels the Scotsman’s relationship with Lampard could be crucial, but a lot hinges on what other business the Toffees do in the meantime.

Brown told GIVEMESPORT: “Gilmour is a really interesting one. He clearly has a massive future, but I don’t think he’s going to play very much
