Everton target Sandro Ramirez insists his focus is on international duty despite him closing in on a move to Goodison.

The 21-year-old striker is understood to have passed a medical with the Blues who are now hoping to finalise personal terms with the Malaga man.

Sandro, however, is adamant he is only concentrating on playing for Spain under-21s ahead of this evening’s European Championships game with Portugal (7:45pm).

Asked about a move to Everton , he is quoted as saying: “I don’t know anything. I’m focused on the Euros”.

Everton have understood to have triggered Sandro’s £5.2m release clause and are closing in on his signature.

The Blues moved into pole position to land Sandro after Atletico Madrid had a transfer ban upheld.

The former Barcelona forward has been a long-time target for Everton’s director of football Steve Walsh.
