Everton looking at new loan signing
Everton are interested in signing former Manchester United left-back Alex Buttner on loan to cope with the loss of Leighton Baines for up to 4 months according to the Daily Mail.
Buttner now plays for Dinamo Moscow after leaving United last year but the report says that Martinez could look towards the Dutchman to provide cover.
Everton have 3 left-backs at the club in Leighton Baines, Bryan Oviedo and Luke Garbutt. Oviedo isn’t fully fit, Garbutt has joined Fulham on loan and is also out for 6 weeks, so youngster Brendan Galloway started at left-back against Watford at the weekend.
26 year old Buttner only made 13 appearances for United.
Would Buttner be a useful short team option?
