Everton ponder loan move for City winger Johnson as Moyes looks to strengthen

Everton are weighing up an ambitious loan move for Manchester City winger Adam Johnson.

City have also considered another winger, Fiorentina’s Alessio Cerci, although talks have stalled over the £6million asking price.
Chelsea, who wanted Johnson before he joined City, have expressed an interest but City are reluctant to sell to a rival.
