Everton are believed to have failed with a bid to prise Sean Davis from the grasp of Premiership rivals Fulham.
Toffees manager David Moyes had been tracking the promising midfielder with a view to adding the 23-year-old to his engine room.
Davis was one of the shining lights for Fulham last season as they survived a brush with relegation and his performances earned him a call-up to the senior England squad.
The England Under-21 international was a key target for Moyes, who is determined to ensure The Toffees build on last term's excellent campaign.
But Fulham have informed Everton that Davis is not for sale and delivered a damning verdict that the Merseyside club could not afford the player - even if he was for sale.
