Everton have reportedly been offered the chance to sign Franck Ribery.
Everton managed to land winger Alex Iwobi before the end of the transfer window, but they may have the chance to sign another one.
The Toffees have yet to give Iwobi his debut, instead sticking with Bernard and Richarlison as their two wide men in Marco Silva’s 4-2-3-1 system.
Now though, 90Min report that Everton have been offered the chance to sign free agent Franck Ribery, who is seeking a new club having left Bayern Munich.
The 36-year-old’s agent is seemingly working hard to get him signed up somewhere, and has put him forward to Everton to think about.
Farhad Moshiri would allegedly be keen, but it’s fair to say that the Frenchman doesn’t really fit Marcel Brands’ approach of signing young players with potential.
Ribery has enjoyed a trophy-laden career, winning nine league titles and a Champions League with Bayern, whilst even being a Ballon d’Or finalist in 2013 before they allowed his contract to expire this summer.
Some Everton now feel that Ribery would be a smart signing, as whilst he’s ageing, he could still offer something both on and off the pitch and may be worth a one-year deal.
Others think that Ribery would smack of signing a washed-up veteran like Paul Gascoigne, David Ginola or Samuel Eto’o, even feeling that signing him would make no sense at all.
