Everton are interested in Dagba – an unnecessary signing?

Everton are interested in Paris Saint-Germain defender Colin Dagba, according to reports.

The 21-year old right-back, who has played four times in Ligue 1 for the Parisians this season so far, has caught the Toffees’ interest ahead of the January transfer window.

With Seamus Coleman approaching the end of his career on Merseyside, Everton are in need of permanent right-back options for the long-term.

Jonjoe Kenny is out on loan with Schalke with his long-term Everton place unclear, and Djibril Sidibe is on loan, although the Blues do have a permanent option.

Paris United (via Tribal Football) claim that Everton are unhappy with the impact of Sidibe, and will look to France youth international Dagba as their right-back solution.

The report claims Everton will push to sign the talented full-back in January, although they would be willing to wait until January to land their man.

Well, this seems hard to believe. Sidibe has barely been given a chance, and in those opportunities he hasn’t looked half bad.

Without being given an extended run, I very much doubt the club have made such a snap decision over whether he is good enough in the long-run.

Sidibe will play against West Ham following Seamus Coleman’s suspension, and it will be a great chance for him to impress.
