EVERTON and Liverpool are considering a window move for West Brom striker Salomon Rondon.

The Venezuelan front man caused chaos for the Baggies in their draw at Goodison last weekend.

He was also involved in a horrific accidental clash with James McCarthy that resulted in the Toffees star suffering a broken leg.

Both Merseyside outfits are tracking the 28-year-old South American, who has scored 23 goals in two and a half seasons since his £12m arrival from Zenit St Petersburg.

Rondon only has 18 months left on his Hawthorns deal.

And he is understood to be settled in the West Midlands and not looking for a move.

But with his contract running down, West Brom may be minded to sell if they receive an offer in excess of £15m.

The forward was preparing to shoot when he was tackled by the Republic of Ireland international.
But the Baggies ace accidentally kicked the back of McCarthy's leg - leaving him stricken on the floor.

And as soon as Rondon saw what had happened to his opponent he broke down in tears, sickened at the sight.

He then chased referee Stuart Attwell pleading with him to call the Everton physios onto the pitch to help comfort McCarthy.

And the ace then made a point of going over to speak to McCarthy and offer him his best wishes as he was carried from the field.

Following the game, Rondon posted an emotional message on Twitter.

He said: Absolutely devastated. Rivalries are forgotten about when a colleague suffers such an unlucky injury.

"Really hope to see you back playing again soon @JMcCarthy_16 #GetWellSoonJames."
