Everton signing Arnaud Kalimuendo will be great replacement for Richarlison
Everton are interested in making a move for PSG striker Arnaud Kalimuendo in the ongoing transfer window, according to 90min.
The Toffees have been in the market to sign an attacking player after the departure of Richarlison who joined Tottenham Hotspur.
As per the report, Everton are now keen on making a move for the 20-year-old who has been also attracting interest from league rivals Leeds United.
Richarlison was arguably one of the few consistent players at Everton. He was a massive reason why Merseyside club still have a Premier League status.
With his departure, things are likely to get tougher for the club and in particular for manager Frank Lampard who would be a little frustrated with the lack of activity in the ongoing transfer window.
Can Kalimuendo fill that void? It remains to be seen. However, he has given some outstanding performances in the French league to justify why the Toffees must make a move for him.
In the 2021-22 Ligue 1 season with Lens, the 20-year-old scored 12 goals in 32 appearances. He had a pass completion rate of 86.4% and averaged 1.9 shots per goal in a game. As a result of those performances, he won a man-of-the-match award and had a rating of 6.69, according to Whoscored.
Those numbers show why Everton must do all they can to ensure that they will sign him ahead of the next campaign as an apt replacement of Richarlison.
He would be perfect.
