Currently, the Merseyside police are investigating the entire post before deciding whether to act.
A spokesman said: “We are currently investigating a number of offensive Tweets made in relation to two Everton players.
“The language used in Tweets is completely unacceptable and we take these reports very seriously.
“Those who use the internet to target other people, and who commit criminal acts such as making threats or committing hate crimes in doing so, are not breaking the law.
"Detectives are looking for information to identify the individual who posted the Tweet and where we identify a violation, we will take action to bring those responsible to justice."
The threat comes on a day that Pickford will certainly not be punished by the FA. Meanwhile, Liverpool have continued to demand answers from the Premier League for the incident that ruined Van Dijk's season.
