Kurt Zouma is on loan at Everton from Premier League powerhouses Chelsea but does he have a future at Stamford Bridge?
Earlier this week, the Liverpool Echo reported that Everton would explore the possibility of signing Kurt Zouma on a permanent basis from Chelsea, with head coach Marco Silva admitting that he is really pleased with the defender’s progress at Goodison Park.
But a lot can change in the blink of an eye in this game.
On Friday, the news broke that Chelsea have been banned from signing new players during the next two transfer windows after breaching FIFA rules in relation to bringing in youngsters, as reported by the BBC.
As a result, many have predicted that the Blues will now look to bring some of their promising loanees back to Stamford Bridge with Zouma, along with Tammy Abraham and Reece James, among those possibly set to be given a chance in West London.
Considering that Gary Cahill is out of contract this summer and Chelsea can no longer sign a replacement, the France international might suddenly become an integral part of their plans.
As a result, it seems that Everton fans are not expecting to see Zouma at Goodison next season. At least not in a Toffees’ shirt.
