Idrissa Gueye has been asking to leave Everton for Paris Saint-Germain, according to a report.
The Senegal international is a rumoured £21.5m target for the French champions after starring for the Toffees across his three years at Goodison Park.
Everton are reluctant to sell for anything less than £35m, but the Daily Mail claims that Gueye could force his exit.
The report indicates that the 29-year-old has written a letter to his employers, but he has fallen short of handing in a transfer request.
PSG have other targets in mind, with Zenit St Petersburg's Leandro Paredes and Abdoulaye Doucoure of Watford also on their shortlist.
