On Thursday we covered a report from L’Equipe which was at least slightly irritating from an Everton perspective.
The Merseyside club were described as ‘greedy’ after telling PSG they’d have to part with €45m to sign Idrissa Gueye in the winter transfer window.
Looking for a midfielder in the current market, Gueye is one of a number who have been identified as a realistic option, but Everton simply aren’t behaving the way PSG would like them to.
It’s stated a source close to the French champions has confirmed the desire to sign Gueye ‘is real’, and it’s claimed the player is ‘not insensitive’ to a January move.
Le Parisien go with a different figure, claiming Everton are asking for €40m, but still think requesting such an amount is a sign of transfer fee gluttony.
