Bryan King does not believe Davinson Sánchez is good enough for Everton.

The ex-Goodison scout claims the defender's previous spell in the Premier League indicates that Everton should avoid signing him.

According to a report from Sporx (10 July), Sanchez is interested in a move to Goodison Park, with Galatasaray making the 28-year-old available for £21.1million.

However, King - speaking exclusively to Goodison News - has advised the Toffees against making a move.

“I’m not convinced by Sanchez,” King said.

“He has been playing in Turkey with Galatasaray, and I don’t think the pressure or level is as great there as it is in the Premier League.

“He also struggled previously at Tottenham, so I don’t think he is the right man to be targeting.”

Will Everton sign Davinson Sánchez from Galatsaray?

This could be a risky bit of business for the Toffees.

Sánchez demonstrated plenty of potential when he first arrived in England as a young player, but he quickly saw his form decline while playing in North London with Tottenham.

As a result, bringing him back to the Premier League where he struggled previously might not be such a good idea.

Of course, different environments can bring out different sides of a player, and the Colombian might be more suited to life at Goodison Park.

However, it would still be a big gamble.

Everton have also been linked with Olympique Lyonnais defender Jake O'Brien, with the 23-year-old available for £30million (via Alan Nixon's Patreon, 7 July).

O'Brien is five years younger than Sánchez. Therefore, Everton might be better off trying to bring his price down slightly and pay a similar amount that they would be paying for Sánchez.

In other Everton news, the club are to make a transfer decision as a financial concern is mooted at Goodison Park.
