Report: Everton want to sign French PL star from London club – originally posted on Sportslens.com

Everton are interested in signing Chelsea centre-back Malang Sarr this summer  according to a report from Gianluca Di Marzio.

Bologna are allegedly keen on the Blues youngster as well.

The 22-year-old joined Chelsea on a free transfer last summer but was immediately loaned out to Porto for the season.

The former Nice man impressed whilst on loan in Portugal. It seems as though he doesn’t really have a future at Stamford Bridge, however.

The Toffees are trying to hijack Bologna’s proposed move to sign the French youngster according to Di Marzio.

With Thomas Tuchel eyeing a move to sign Jules Kounde from Sevilla, Sarr would be wise to move on from the west London outfit on loan at the very least.

The Chelsea ace would be a very strong addition for Everton boss Rafa Benitez. The Frenchman would certainly add more pace and power to the Spaniard’s defensive options at Goodison Park.

At 22, Sarr has plenty of time left ahead of him to improve upon things like his positional sense and his reading of the game.

He has all of the basic attributes needed to succeed in the Premier League, however.

Whether Everton manage to beat Bologna to Sarr’s signature this summer though, remains to be seen.
