Kevin Doyle is Everton and Aston Villa target

27 August 2012 06:17
Everton and Aston Villa are attempting to pry Republic of Ireland striker Kevin Doyle away from Wolves.Toffees boss David Moyes has long been a fan of the striker but his chances of getting Doyle have been reduced by Sunderland's purchase of Steven Fletcher. Paul Lambert could do with extra artillery at misfiring Villa and Doyle could be the man to team up with Darren Bent and get the goals flowing. On the move? Kevin Doyle could leave Wolves   Wolves picked up a healthy ?14million for the Scotsman and, along with ?10.75m from West ham for winger Matt Jarvis, do not need to sell the hitman. Manager Stale Solbakken said: 'I have not heard anything about Doyle leaving and hopefully he will stay.'However winger Stephen Hunt is a player the Wolves boss does not mind leaving. The 31-year-old has just one year left on his contract and Wolves have picked up winger Razak Boukari, 25, on a season-long loan from Rennes. Everton meanwhile are hoping to seal the M'Baye Niang deal with Caen on Monday for close to £2m.
