RONALD KOEMAN wants to take England keeper Fraser Forster off his old club Southampton.
The Everton boss is lining up a £15million bid for the giant No 1 in the next transfer window.
Koeman has tried and failed to bring in several targets, headed by Joe Hart.
Forster, 28, is settled at St Mary’s but could be attracted if the Toffees look serious contenders to make the Champions League.
Koeman has already taken one keeper from Saints, bringing in Dutchman Maarten Stekelenburg this summer.

His interest has cooled on Hart but he also looked at Portugal’s Rui Patricio and Bayer Leverkusen’s Bernd Leno.
Everton would also then sell Spaniard Joel Robles.

Coyle's £2m Judge boost
HARD-UP Blackburn hope Newcastle do a deal for Brentford’s Alan Judge to hand them a £2million bonus.
Owen Coyle spent just £250,000 out of the £10m owners Venky’s raked in from summer sales.
But Rovers could get a windfall from a sell-on clause in Judge’s move to Brentford two years ago.
The Irish midfielder, 27, was sold for around £300,000 — yet Toon want him for £10m when he is fully fit again and Rovers are due 20 per cent of that profit.
Judge is due to move to Toon in January once he fully recovers from a broken leg.
