Our Everton fans here in the Transfer Tavern want to see some moves that strengthen their European ambitions and, according to Sky Italia, they might be about to get one involving Kostas Manolas.
The Toffees have had an up and down season up until now with their form starting off in fine fashion before seriously tailing off.
They look to be back in the saddle now, though, and the signing of Greek international Manolas would certainly strengthen their chances.
The AS Roma defender is one of the most highly-rated centre halves in Serie A and this rumour just goes to demonstrate the potential financial power the Premier League clubs have over their continental rivals.
The Toffees have new monetary resources available to them and our landlord believes without that they wouldn’t even be able to be linked with the defender as they are currently.
It’s a potential deal that’s excited our local Blues fans who have seen Phil Jagielka begin to show signs of decline this season and, like our landlord, they think this deal would be a real statement.
What are your thoughts, Everton fans? Let us know below!
