Everton are reported to have joined the chase for Ecuadorian
forward Felipe Caicedo.
The 19-year-old is currently with Basel and really came to the fore
in the summer as he made Ecuador's Copa America squad.
He has also impressed this term with goals in the Uefa Cup and now
a host of teams from around the continent are tracking him.
Many believe Caicedo is a raw talent, but his natural ability is
undoubted - although Basel fully realise his potential and want
around £4million for the player they signed as a 16-year-old.
With Everton joining teams from Italy and Spain in checking on
Caicedo, the news of potential interest has filtered back to the
player.
However, he insists he is not looking at anything other than
helping Basel.
"My mission is to play and help at Basel," Caicedo told
reporters.
"I do not want to think about other questions.
"It is normal that I do desire to improve, like any professional in
Europe, but for now I am content in Switzerland."
