Toffees express Donovan interest

Everton have expressed an interest in signing USA forward Landon Donovan. The Toffees are reportedly in talks with Donovan’s MLS franchise, LA Galaxy, to bring the player on loan to Goodison Park in the winter transfer window.

Everton chief executive Robert Elstone has said that Donovan is a transfer target for the club’s Scottish manager David Moyes. Any deal Everton manage to make with Galaxy for Donovan’s services is likely to be similar to the one the MLS side have in place with AC Milan, who will take David Beckham on loan in January.

If the negotiations are fruitful, Donovan will join the Toffees on a three month loan beginning on January 2. California born Donovan has never played in England before. He has however had two spells in the Bundesliga, first with Bayer Leverkusen and then with Bayer’s bitter rivals Bayern Munich.
