Fulham player Jimmy Bullard is the latest transfer target for Everton, with the Merseyside club believed to have made a £4million bid to bring the midfielder to Goodison Park, according to website nsno.co.uk.

The report claims that Bullard has not signed a new deal at Craven Cottage going on to reveal that the former Wigan Athletic players transfer to the Toffees is part of the deal that saw Andy Johnson make the switch to the Cottagers.

29-year-old Bullard joined Fulham from the Latics in 2006, but was made to watch from the sidelines at Craven Cottage due to a long-term injury sustained in his first season at the club. However, Bullard did come back to make a difference in Fulham’s successful fight against relegation from the Premier League last season.

Everton have also been heavily linked with a move for Joao Moutinho of Sporting Lisbon, with it understood that the Merseysiders have sent a delegation to Portugal to try and finally thrash out a deal for the 21-year-old midfielder.

Stephane M’bia is another player linked with a move to Goodison, with Everton likely to make a move for the midfielder, who has already stated his desire to join the Toffees, now that Cameroon have been knocked out of the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

Everton boss David Moyes has been linked with several players this summer, though Moutinho remains his number one target as he tries to strengthen an Everton squad ravaged with injuries and lacking numbers in midfield.
