Everton plotting triple transfer move
Everton have been watching Lyon trio striker Alexandre Lacazette, attacking midfielder Nabil Fekir and Samuel Umtiti according to the Daily Star.
Umtiti is the one closely linked and can play left sided centre back or at left back and the France under 21 international is also being linked to a move to Manchester City.
Lacazette is less likely to leave after the Lyon club president Jean-Michel Aulas blasted the striker for saying he could leave in the summer and looked to put a block on any transfer. The French forward has been one of Ligue 1’s standout player this season, scoring 21 goals in 24 starts to help Lyon sit at the top of the division
“My aim is now to do my best this season and at the end of the season we shall see,” he told OL TV .
“I know that several clubs are watching me, but I will think about whether I want to leave or stay later on and then we shall see.
“At the moment I cannot say if I am staying or not, because if a club puts a certain amount of millions of euros on the table, the president will probably tell me to leave.”
The club president took to twitter to say that any move was impossible.
