Everton manager David Moyes hopes to sign Johnny Heitinga before the transfer window closes on Tuesday after agreeing a fee with Atletico Madrid for the Dutch defender.
Moyes is believed to have offered five million pounds (5.6 million euros) for the Holland international, but the deal is still some way from completion.
