Everton are reportedly keen to sign Kurt Zouma permanently from Premier League rivals Chelsea, with Marco Silva a big fan of the centre-back.
Kurt Zouma; yes or no?
That is the question on the minds of Everton fans with head coach Marco Silva, indicating that he would love to make the defender’s loan move from Chelsea permanent in the summer transfer window.
In quotes reported by the Liverpool Echo, the former Watford and Hull City boss admitted that he is ‘really pleased’ with the progress Zouma has made at Goodison Park this season.
The report adds that Everton are expected to enquire about his availability in the summer to find out whether Chelsea would be willing to sell. But what do fans think about the prospect of the 24-year-old France international staying on Merseyside for the foreseeable future?
Well, for all those who believe that Zouma’s pace and power would make him a fine signing, particularly when compared to the £30 million misfit Yerry Mina, there are those who are pointing out that he is far from the finished article.
The former St Etienne wonder-kid still has plenty of rough edges, being sent off in his most recent outing against Watford. And it seems he’s got a long way to go before he convinces each and every Everton fan, too.
