Transfer Rumour Eliaquim Mangala

[MartSlinger]

Has Mangala ever played left back? Or is Allardyce planning to play 3 at the back? either way, this is highly disappointing.

Played LB for a bit at Porto.

 

[Frang]

The Mahrez deal is off anyway.

yes because Mangala has his heart on playing left back for us..

 

[Dario Terracotta]

Yeah but can mangala do this?lol

 

[Kev50]

I can imagine Mahrez fury at Leicester turning down a bid of 55m for him. Ridiculous

The newspaper report in their live transfer blog (Wednesday, 15:41) that the Toffees will pay a loan fee of around £1million for the 26-year-old France international.

The Mirror claim that Everton will have the option of making the move a permanent one for £15million in the summer.

It is said that Mangala is undergoing a medical at the club this afternoon, after choosing to join the Toffees over potential moves to Newcastle and West Ham.

Sam Allardyce reportedly wants to bring in defensive reinforcements, and Mangala’s ability to play both centre-back and left-back was a big draw.

Worth a punt IMO .... We are woefully short / old in the back and the lad may benefit from some regular play. If the report is to believed .... and IF he is a decent upgrade on Williams / Jags / Cuco ..... 15 mill is not a bad price for a starting CB in today's market

...amounts seem reasonable given his contract is up next year.

..apparently Everton will not be bringing in any additions to the U23 squad @Nymzee.

Think he'll be a good signing

We got that through with 2 short old-ish CB last year. Keane and Mangala...seem balanced there.

 

[Sir Alan]

Exactly. Been at the end of this tube's nonsense before.

"Messi would be a good signing"

Sir Alan: "Too small, wouldn't cut it in the premier league, you've shown yourself to be clueless by saying that"

Is it too late to enter him into the Everton Crank of the Year award?

Give that award to yourself chief.

Chatting absolute undies there

Personal I think its an awful move, we don't need a panic upgrade on Jags/ Williams, we need a really good player, just being better then them two is nothing special. Doing this is how we got Martina, is Walsh really that bad he has had months to find someone and all he can do us a city reject, 30 miles down the road

 

[polish]

It would be ludicrous to play him at left back. He offers second to nothing going forward. Bet he's brought to be Holgate's partner.

Either way it doesn't make much sense to me.

...Breaking News; Sky saying deal agreed in principle with Manchester City. No loan fee but Everton will cover his wages. It’s now up to the player.

 

[BernieH]

It's all agreed in principal, down to Mangala now
