da fazobetai: Everton have asked about the possibility of signing Thomas Meunier in an exchange deal with Paris Saint-Germain that would see Idrissa Gueye leave the Premier League, per Telefoot.
What’s the word?
Gueye has been linked with a move away from Goodison Park throughout the January transfer window as the Parisian side looks to strengthen their midfield ahead of losing Adrien Rabiot for free in the summer, when his contract is due to expire.
Telefoot are now suggesting that Everton will allow Gueye to move to Ligue 1 on the basis that Paris Saint-Germain’s right-back, Meunier, moves in the other direction.
However, while the French giants are said to be open to an exchange, the word is that they will demand cash alongside Gueye.
Arsenal’s Hector Bellerin may be out for the season but it’s given him a chance to show off his new accesory. Check out the video below to see for yourself…
Would it be a good deal?
Gueye may be a key member of Marco Silva’s squad, but the 29-year-old has been inconsistent this season. In some games, the Senegal international is commanding in the middle of the pitch, but in others, the match seems to pass him by.
Similar can be said regarding Seamus Coleman, who Meunier would replace, and the Goodison Park faithful have already seen one full-back in Leighton Baines ushered out of the way for a younger option in Lucas Digne.
Meunier would also represent what Coleman has lost over the years, as the right-back has been involved in seven goals for PSG so far this season, scoring four and assisting three in all competitions.
The biggest issue, however, is that swap deals rarely work out. Everton could be lumbered with a highly paid option sat on the bench if Meunier cannot establish himself in the starting XI immediately.
Another concern is that Gueye would have to be replaced at short notice, and if PSG are asking for cash alongside the 62-cap international, Everton would be getting the shorter end of the stick.
