Everton and Fulham battling to sign Ligue 1 star

Everton are keen to sign Clement Grenier from Guingamp this summer, according to reports from France.

The Toffees are yet to make their first summer signing but with Marcel Brands and Marco Silva now settled at the club, preparations for the 2018/19 campaign are well underway.

A host of players have been linked with moves to Goodison Park this summer and the latest is Grenier, who looks set to leave Guingamp and seek pastures new in the immediate future.

According to a report from L’Equipe, the Toffees are among a host of clubs across Europe who are keen to recruit Grenier from the Ligue 1 side.

It’s stated in the report that potential suitors may have the opportunity to land the French midfielder in a cut-price deal, with L’Equipe indicating that Grenier could be snapped up for a fee as low as €3m.

However, Everton will face stiff competition for Grenier’s signature. Fellow Premier League clubs Newcastle and Fulham are also noted as potential destinations for the player.
