Paris Saint-Germain’s Ligue 1 champion Thomas Meunier could potentially move to the Premier League as part of a deal with Everton’s Idrissa Gueye.
Everton are interested in signing Paris Saint-Germain right-back Thomas Meunier, according to Telefoot.
The Toffees have been at the centre of one of the longest January transfer sagas in recent weeks with PSG making no secret of their desire to bring Idrissa Gana Gueye to the Parc des Princes this month.
Sky Sports claimed on Sunday night that the Ligue 1 champions had made an offer of £21.5 million for the Senegal international, though Everton are expected to spurn their advances.
But their reported interest in Meunier could change things. As reported by Telefoot, it is not beyond the realms of possibility that the 27-year-old could move to Goodison Park as part of a cash-plus-player swap deal with Gueye.
A 2016 signing from Club Brugge, Meunier is one of Europe’s most exciting, attack-minded right-backs. He has four goals and five assists for Thomas Tuchel’s PSG this season but he is far from a regular, competing with Dani Alves and the versatile Thilo Kehrer for a place in the starting XI.
At Goodison Park, however, he could be seen as an upgrade on Seamus Coleman, who hasn’t quite been himself this season.
