Everton FC rumour mill: Nikola Zigic and Herita Ilunga linked, EFC mulling Shane Long price tag

The Blues are on alert after Nikola Zigic's agent confirmed the giant striker will leave Birmingham City this summer, according to Football365.

Everton are believed to have shown an interest in the 30-year-old Serbia forward in the past.

Zigic's representative Milan Calasan is quoted as saying: "At the moment, the only thing that is sure is that Zigic is going to leave Birmingham this summer.

Blues to offer Herita Ilunga Premier League reprieve?

Wolves, QPR and Norwich are also thought to be monitoring the 29-year-old left-back's situation.

Sky Sports quote Ilunga as saying: "I'm aware of the speculation. Nothing's done at the moment. I want to play in the top division.

"West Ham's a friendly club and I'm very happy to play for them, but you never know in football."
