​Malaga striker Sandro Ramirez has been spotted arriving at a hotel in the city of Liverpool as he and his agent prepare to discuss a possible transfer to Everton this summer.





​The Mail had previously reported on Sunday that the former Barcelona academy graduate was traveling to England to discuss a possible move to Goodison Park and it appears that those rumours were indeed true after Twitter user @Jackoefc27 recorded footage of the forward checking into a hotel on Merseyside.

Having left the Nou Camp last summer on a free transfer, the 21-year-old has made the most of regular playing time at Malaga, where he has scored 14 times in 30 appearances for them throughout the season.





Incredibly, Ramirez's release clause is reported to be as low as £5.2m, and it seems that the Toffees are close to triggering that very clause as they look to agree personal terms with the player in the coming days.

It was initially thought that the Spaniard was set to seal a switch to Atletico Madrid, but those plans were scuppered when the club's transfer embargo was upheld by the Court of Arbitration for Sport the other week.





Ramirez has now turned his attentions to sealing a move to the Premier League, and is understood to have been closely watched by the Toffees in recent months.

Manager Ronald Koeman was seen personally attending Malaga's 3-0 win over Celta Vigo in May as he looked to get a close up view of Ramirez in action.





The versatile striker will prove a valuable asset to the Everton squad should a transfer go through, and it will ease some of the concerns about the potential departure of main goalscorer Romelu Lukaku, whose ​recent comments have led to increased speculation about a return to Chelsea.
