EVERTON IN TALKS FOR GBAMIN

​

Everton are in talks with Mainz over a deal to sign defensive-midfielder Jean-Philippe Gbamin, according to Sky in Germany.

​

The Toffees have had a £23m (€25m) bid rejected, with the Bundesliga side valuing the Ivory Coast player at £27.5m (€30m), Sky in Germany are reporting.

​

Everton played Mainz at the weekend but Gbamin was absent due to still being on holiday after his appearances at the African Cup of Nations.

​

The 23-year-old defensive-midfielder, who can also play at centre-back, played 32 times in the Bundesliga last season and scored twice.

​

Everton are on the hunt for a new midfielder after Idrissa Gueye’s move to Paris Saint-Germain was confirmed on Tuesday – and they are also interested in Southampton’s Mario Lemina.

Gaining traction this now

It depends on what source they are referencing in any given article.

Basically they are just translating non-English sources into English. They are doing a good job.

If were at £23mil and they want £27.5mil then these are much lower figures than the €35mil mentioned before.

Also id expect the deal to be done at £25mil.

Pity Mainz arent a club who would fancy paying Tosuns wages lol

If all the reporting is correct (I know that’s a big if) and they are only 4.5 million apart then this deal is surely getting done, meet somewhere near the middle and call it a day

Could well be that he would start next to Andre but then if any injuries he would go to CB and Delph take his place next to Andre.

May mean we are not signing an RB this summer?!

Marcel Brands does NOT meet teams in the middle.

So now we are starting to finally buy. Is he any good?

 

[FTY]

I wouldn’t think too much about the “he can play centre back” talk

6’2 if he was any good at centre back he wouldn’t be playing in midfield

No idea Matty my old china.

I honestly thought there was nothing in it so I didnt even bother having a look at his wiki page nevermind his youtube vids, so I couldnt even tell you what he looked like!!!

If Brands wants him, hes an utter BALLER tho Matty.

to me that suggests has done all the kean work and it's just the medical side so he can move on and get others in

ToffeeTV have had Elpivote on again whose gone over his abilities and comparison with Gana/Sangare.

Seems a very interesting signing.
