Most predictable transfer rumour to-date is...

Anyone watching Euro 2012 and in particular Croatia will have realised the great partnership up front between Everton's Nikica Jelavić and Wolfsburg's Mario Mandžukić.

Both have shown good goalscoring form in the tournament so far and their partnership has flurried.

Anyone who has seen them play will have thought about just how good they could be if they partnered each other up front on a weekly basis, so it's hardly surprising the British media have put this together and suggested that Mandžukić could be an Everton target.

The Mirror have done their best to make it sound convincing, we apparently were interested in him two years ago when he played for Dinamo Zagreb, but the now 26-year-old was signed by Wolfsburg for €8 million by then manager Steve McClaren where he has flourished scoring 20 goals in less than 60 appearances.

Despite Steve McClaren moving on, the red top believes the connection between McClaren and Everton assistant Steve Round has some relevance to the story, with the two being friends.

Mandžukić has two years left on his contract with Wolfsburg and is reportedly available for £6million. If you were playing fantasy football, you'd simply love to pair these two up, but even at a 'fair' pricetag of £6million probably counts us out.
