Everton set to complete the £3million signing of Barcelona star Gerard Deulofeu.

Everton are poised to sign £3million Barcelona winger Gerard Deulofeu after beating off competition from other Premier League clubs for the 21-year-old Spaniard.

The move represents a return to Goodison Park for Deulofeu who scored four goals in 30 matches during a season-long loan under Roberto Martinez in 2013/14 when Everton qualified for the Europa League.

Last season was less successful for both parties with Deulofeu struggling on loan at Sevilla and Everton finishing in the bottom half of the table.

Martinez moved for Deulofeu once it was clear Barcelona would allow the player to leave on a permanent basis from the Nou Camp.

The cost of the transfer would be half what Tottenham want for Aaron Lennon who spent the second half of last season on Merseyside.

Deulofeu would be Everton's second signing of the summer. They have already signed Manchester United midfielder Tom Cleverley on a five-year contract after his deal at Old Trafford ran out.
