Peterborough United have accepted an offer from a Premier League side for Craig Mackail-Smith.

Norwich City failed with a £2.5m bid for the striker earlier this season and Wigan and Queen's Park Rangers have been linked with a move for the 27-year-old. Everton appear his most likely destination as they look to add potency to a misfiring attack. Mackail-Smith is to leave after helping Peterborough to victory in Sunday's League One play-off final.

After that success the side's 35-goal top scorer said he had his sights set on the top flight. "I want to play at the highest level I can and I want to play in the Premier League," he said, "though it all depends on what club comes in for me."
