LA Galaxy forward and USA international Landon Donovan has said that he would be “very comfortable” with a loan move to Everton.
Donovan is keen to join a major European side in January in order to maintain his fitness during the MLS close season.
The 27 year old has extended his deal at the Galaxy until 2013, but said:
“You want to go where you are wanted and Everton have been incredibly professional and expressed their interest and I feel that is a place where I would feel very comfortable.
“There's already a lot of Americans that play (in the Premier League) and it would be interesting. But we will cross that bridge when we come to it.”
Everton remain confident that a deal will be done, with chief executive Robert Elstone commenting:
“Positive discussions have been ongoing and we expect to have Landon join the club when the window opens on January 2.”
