Everton are closing in on the signing of Merlin Röhl from SC Freiburg.

After The Athletic reported earlier on Monday that the Toffees were keen to complete a deal for the midfielder before tonight’s transfer deadline, Sky now reports that Röhl is already in England.

A loan with a purchase obligation of around €20 million is reportedly under discussion between the two clubs.

The parties are in a race against time, as the deal must be completed before 20:00 CET tonight.

Röhl has played 70 minutes in three games so far for Freiburg this season.
