Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin is set to be the subject of a shock bid from Al-Ettifaq

The Saudi Pro League side, managed by Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard, are keen on the 26-year-old centre forward following his return to form after spells out with numerous injuries.

Calvert-Lewin has scored three goals in seven matches for the Toffees this season, although he proved ineffective in their 2-0 defeat in Saturday's Merseyside derby.

However, Al-Ettifaq are still eager to make the England international their latest high-profile foreign acquisition and will offer him a lucrative deal, according to The Sun.

Gerrard's side were busy in the recent summer transfer window, bringing in former Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson and ex-Celtic striker Moussa Dembele.

Calvert-Lewin's recent Everton team-mate Demarai Gray also decided to take the opportunity to play for Gerrard after a difficult time under Sean Dyche at Goodison Park.

Despite their spending, Al-Ettifaq have not enjoyed the best of starts to the season and currently sit seventh in the table ahead of their trip to Al-Riyadh later today.

Signing a striker of Calvert-Lewin's ilk, with 63 goals from 216 matches in all competitions with Everton, could help the club compete with the likes of Al-Hilal, Al-Ittihad, Al-Nassr and Al-Ahli.
