Everton are reluctant to sell winger Kevin Mirallas this month

Everton have ruled out the prospect of letting Kevin Mirallas leave Goodison Park this month.

The Belgium international has been frustrated by a lack of playing time and has attracted interest from Monaco and West Ham.

But manager Roberto Martinez will not let a key member of his squad move, either permanently or on loan.

Martinez, however, would be willing to let Aidan McGeady and Darron Gibson go on temporary moves if they receive suitable offers.

Steven Naismith remains a target for Norwich, who have bid £8.5million for the Scotland international, but the Scotland international is weighing up his options.

Everton, meanwhile, expect to complete a £3m deal for Grasshopper Zurich striker Shani Tarashaj in the next 24 hours.

The Toffees are currently 11th in the Premier League table with 27 points from 20 games.

They host Manchester City in the first-leg of the Capital One Cup semi-final on Wednesday night.
