Bristol City captain Jason Knight is a midfield target for Premier League side Everton, according to TEAMtalk.
Bristol City are preparing for another season of Championship football after coming up short in the play-offs.
The Robins were brilliant in their surge to a 6th-place finish in the regular season. However, they were outgunned and outclassed by Sheffield United across two legs in their play-off semi-final, losing both games 3-0.

Liam Manning and co will now rest and recharge before looking to go again next season, but their success looks to have prompted interest in key man Jason Knight.
According to a report from TEAMtalk, Premier League side Everton are plotting a move for the Bristol City captain.
The Toffees are out to strengthen their midfield ranks this summer with a number of senior players expected to move on. Numerous options are on their radar, and Republic of Ireland international Knight is among them.
The report says Bristol City have been tracking Knight over the course of the season and are considering a move in the coming weeks. There is not a price tag at this moment in time, but Everton could get a deal done at the right fee, it is said.
