Everton want £30m fee to sell Lucas Digne
Everton are reportedly looking for a fee in the region of £30million to part ways with their left-back Lucas Digne.
According to Sky Sports, Napoli, Newcastle, Chelsea and West Ham are keen on the 28-year-old’s services.
It is also understood that an unnamed club are now interested in signing the France international in January.
Hold out for £30million
Given the growing interest in his services, Everton must not deter from their valuation.
The likes of Chelsea and Newcastle can surely afford to pay that money to sign a player of his calibre.
Both clubs are desperately looking for left-backs this month and Digne would offer to be a perfect stopgap option for them.
While Digne would still be Everton’s best player in that role, his days at the club appear to be numbered.
After a falling out with Rafa Benitez, the Frenchman was quickly moved to the sidelines.
The Toffees also brought in Vitaliy Mykolenko as his replacement and Digne appears poised for an exit in the coming weeks.
It remains to be seen where he eventually ends up as there is a market for his services and the number of suitors only seem to be increasing.
This works perfectly for Everton as they can drive up his price and make a good profit off his sale.
