Kana-Biyik flattered by Toffees

[Neiler]

Le Havre starlet Jean-Armel Kana-Biyik has told skysports.com that he is flattered by reports linking him with Everton.

But the young defender - son of former Cameroon international Andre Kana-Biyik - insists he has not agreed any move to Goodison Park.

Reports in England had claimed that the Toffees had agreed a deal to sign the 19-year-old.
However, Kana-Biyik admits this is not the case and is happy to leave his future in the hands of his current club.

"I am calm about the links to Everton, they are a great club, and it is appealing when you hear about them wanting you," he told skysports.com.

"But I have a three-year contract with Le Havre. If they agree with Le Havre, I will join them, but it is in the hands of Le Havre. So let's wait and see."

Everton are known to have kept tabs on Kana-Biyik during the recent Toulon tournament, where he helped France reach the final, which they lost to Chile.

West Ham have also been credited with an interest in Kana-Biyik.

I'm liking this now, rumour mill is cranking up to full speed! Just a 'defender' though. It seems he did play for Cameroon but then played for France, so hopefully if we got him he wouldn't be leaving for the AFCON every two years.

Wow, we've been linked with a ton of youngsters this summer. If we sign all of them we might have the youngest squad in the history of the epl.

Another player i know nothing about

Wasn't his old man one of the crazy Cameroonian defenders from Italia 90? Had a couple sent off for hacking down Argentinians if I remember.

Absolutely quality name - could do with another hyphen or two though like.

Anyone figured out where he plays at the back? - we really could do with back up for Baines and I guess in the middle as well (I'm assuming this German kid we've signed is a season or 2 from featuring for the 1st XI)

Le Havre have one of the best Academies anywhere, plenty of quality players come through their system (Lassana Diarra, Sinama-Pongolle, N'Zogbia, Carlos Kameni, Mandanda, Dhorasoo, Chimbonda, Boumsong? etc), good chance this kid might be another.

If this rumour is true.. why do we keep on going for defenders when we need midfielders more urgently?

I'm starting to fear that Moyes will field a 7-2-1 soon.
