Everton resume talks for Juventus defender Demiral

Everton have opened talks with Juventus for Mehri Demiral.

Tuttosport says Everton are in talks with Juventus to sign Demiral.

The Toffees have now been set an asking price for the defender they have long sought.

The Serie A outfit want €40million (£37.5m) for the centre-back.

Everton were plotting a £26m move for Demiral in March, so owner Farhad Moshiri will have to spend more than he planned to get his man.

Talks between the two clubs had reportedly taken place before Juventus decided to up their price.

And Everton are not prepared to make a new bid until they appoint a manager.
