Everton are reportedly interested in the man linked with Crystal Palace.
Crystal Palace fans are fearing the worst on Twitter as Everton reportedly join the race for Maxime Gonalons.
Sky Sports claim that Crystal Palace had lodged a £9 million bid for the France international.
But reports from Italy indicate that Everton are also interested in the Roma midfielder, with Calciomercato stating that the Toffees are monitoring his situation.
By virtue of the fact that Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Yohan Cabaye have both left the Eagles this summer, Roy Hodgson really needs a new and experienced midfielder.
But some fans of the London club believe that Everton’s reported entry into the reckoning might be ominous.
Everton boast the greater financial muscle to flex, so if the Toffees bid then that is a serious concern for Palace.
With only two weeks to go in the transfer window, Palace need to get their act together – and fast.
So far, Vicente Guaita on a Bosman is their only summer signing.
Everton also only have the one signing to their name so far, but it was the £50 million addition of Richarlison and plenty more could follow over the coming weeks.
