David Moyes’s West Ham United are interested in signing former Everton loanee Djibril Sidibe in the summer transfer window, according to But! Football Club.

But! Football Club have reported that West Ham have shown interest in Sidibe, who is a free agent at the moment following his departure from AS Monaco this summer.

Fulham, who will play in the Premier League next season after winning promotion from the Championship, are keen on the 29-year-old as well.

Former Everton loanee Djibril Sidibe to West Ham United?

Sidibe is 29 now and is a free agent at the moment, so we can understand why West Ham United are keen on Djibril Sidibe.

The Hammers could get a good player for cover at full-back without playing any transfer fee.

The wages of the Frenchman, who spent the 2019-20 season on loan at Everton from AS Monaco, are unlikely to be massive.

The 29-year-old did well during his time at Everton, and was quoted as saying by TribalFootball in November 2020 that he “had a proposal to extend” at the Toffees, but “two clubs discussed it and couldn’t come to an agreement”.

Sidibe wanted to stay at Everton, and he will probably relish a move to the Premier League.
