Everton are reportedly still keen on PSG defender Thomas Meunier.
According to Telefoot, Everton aren’t giving up hope of signing right back Thomas Meunier from Paris Saint-Germain this summer – but would have to pay £25million.
The Toffees are facing a big transfer window this summer, as Marcel Brands chose to refrain making moves in January in order to prepare for the summer.
A right back may be key for Everton, as Seamus Coleman needs proven competition, and the Daily Mail report that Crystal Palace want Jonjoe Kenny.
With that in mind, Everton are continuing to look at other right backs, and PSG’s Meunier is one player often linked given that he’s set to move on this summer.
It’s now claimed that Everton aren’t giving up their pursuit of Meunier having registered an interest earlier this year, and PSG want €30million (£25million) for his signature.
The 27-year-old Belgium international has notched five goals and seven assists this season, continuing to be a force going forward in a star-studded PSG side.
Meunier would be a signal of intent for Everton, and he may well be open to a move as he told RTBF last year that he would be willing to take a step down to a club like Everton in order to play regularly.
The Toffees may well remember those comments and look to offer him that exact opportunity, and fans would no doubt love to see Meunier on the right and Lucas Digne on the left of the Everton defence.
