Name: Bernard
Position: Forward
Club: Shakhtar Donetsk
With less than a week left until the transfer window closes, Toffees boss Roberto Martinez will be keen to bring a forward into the club, especially after a deal for Ukraine international Andriy Yarmolenko fell through.
Striker Arouna Kone has been playing out wide for the Merseysiders, and Martinez will be eyeing individuals that can play anywhere across the front line.
Shakhtar Donetsk’s Bernard is one name linked, but with the Brazil international standing at just 5ft 4½in, it could be a risky move. However, Sergio Aguero and Alexis Sanchez are just two South Americans that have shown that height doesn’t always matter in the Premier League.
