Farhad Moshiri, Everton’s billionaire major shareholder, is also willing to meet Newcastle’s valuation of Sissoko. Goodison Park officials are meeting on Thursday to discuss significant moves in the transfer market, with the new manager, Ronald Koeman, yet to sign an outfield player for the first team since replacing Roberto Martínez.

Moshiri has shown his ambition to overhaul Everton in terms of management structure, with compensation agreed with Leicester City for their highly prized chief scout Steve Walsh, and will back Koeman with substantial transfer funds. Whether that can persuade Sissoko to resist Juventus’s advances, however, remains to be seen. Arsenal have also been linked with Sissoko but have not returned to Newcastle with an offer in the £35m region.
 
Feels a bit like a hurry up to Witsel or Carvalho. If you can find the right position for him he can be a very effective player going forward as seen in the Euros. Just has zero defensive nous and can be extremely lazy when not up for it. Newcastle pushing him wide was telling.
 


IF and a big IF there is any truth in this.

It shows the club havent been able to get who they want and will get more desperate in their transfer activity which would be a concern. I don't want us to throw money about and hope we sign a good player.

Personally, i like sissoko, great player used horribly up there.
