Everton appear to have identified a Premier League ready defender who could be available for a very reasonable price this summer.
Sean Dyche and his team will be diligently trying to improve this Everton squad, who should now be set to welcome Jack Harrison back on loan for another season.
This summer, it appears that Everton will be somewhat restrained when it comes to parting with big money to bring players in.
It’s long been thought that Dyche’s side will need to sell one of their stars to adhere with PSR, to avoid another sanction next season.
Amadou Onana and Jarrad Branthwaite are arguably the club’s two most attractive assets, players they’d be loath to lose.
But on the balance of things, Onana isn’t quite as crucial as Branthwaite to Dyche’s project moving forward.
That being said, there will still be the opportunity to improve.
And according to L’Equipe in France, Everton are now interested in former Burnley defender Lorenz Assignon, who just rejected a permanent move to the club.
