Everton are reportedly closing in on the capture of the France international.
Everton have agreed an £18 million fee with Barcelona for left-back Lucas Digne, according to a report from the Liverpool Echo, and the 25-year-old was snapped on Merseyside today ahead of completing his proposed medical.
Digne is a top class performer, and will undoubtedly strengthen the Toffees’ left-back department, providing more stringent competition for the ageing Leighton Baines.
The Goodison Park faithful will surely be excited at the prospect of seeing the Frenchman in action.
Everton fans got a sneak peak of the Barca ace on Merseyside today, ahead of proposed medical, before completing his £18 million switch to Goodison Park:
Everton fans will be expecting vast improvements on last season under the guidance of Marco Silva this time around, and bringing in players like Lucas Digne will obviously help the Portuguese take his Toffees side back to where they belong.
In today’s day and age, £18 million for a player with the Frenchman’s undoubtedly quality represents excellent value for money for the Merseyside outfit, and he will surely go on to become a real hit amongst the Goodison Park faithful.
