Sidibe is 31 years old...... I feel we have more deadbeats than John Joe Kenny ro get rid off,and we have two aging fullbacks at right back..........logic suggests to me that he’s surplus to requirements at Everton.
Silva/Brands made it clear that a new RB was a key requirement, yet they send this lad out and bring Sidebe in with an option to buy. If they rated Kenny highly, he wouldn’t be elsewhere when we have a void in that position.
The other factor is I wouldn’t be certain the player would want to come back. He’s a regular starter, seems to have settled into a new life abroad and might not want to swap for a back-up role here.
We have a new Manager, so thinking might change but I’d be very surprised if he ever comes back, especially if Schalke want him to stay.
Holgate how many wanted to get rid of him pre season?
