# Everton: Fans fume over Lucas Digne post

**Loads of Everton fans have been left fuming over an official post that has emerged from the Goodison Park faithful on Lucas Digne.**

The Toffees have now released a [statement](https://www.evertonfc.com/news/2446285) confirming his sale to Aston Villa for an undisclosed fee, but it did seem very underwhelming, with only three lines of a goodbye message and with no comments from Digne himself or those inside the Merseyside club.

The left-back made a total of 127 appearances for the Blues over the course of the last four seasons, scoring six goals and making a further 20 assists ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/lucas-digne/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/126664/plus/0?saison=&verein=29&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=)), and was a loyal servant over the years.

Thus, the statement does seem strange considering his time with them, and it is no surprise to see so many EFC supporters fuming over it.
