# Everton fans claim Blues have to buy Sidibe in the summer

Several Everton fans have called on the club to sign Djibril Sidibe on a permanent contract in the summer.

The French full-back joined the Toffees on a season-long loan deal in the summer from Monaco, with the temporary deal having a £12.75 permanent option inserted into the contract ([Liverpool Echo](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/everton-news-transfers-goals-highlights-17231077)).

Despite starting the season behind Seamus Coleman in the pecking order, Sidibe quickly established himself as the starting right-back at Goodison Park, starting 15 of his 17 Premier League games for the club ([WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/10454/Show/Djibril-Sidib%C3%A9)).

Sidibe once again impressed against Watford in Everton 3-2 win at Vicarage Road on Saturday, with [Everton tweeting](https://twitter.com/Everton/status/1224286658968707073?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1224286658968707073&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.liverpoolecho.co.uk%2Fsport%2Ffootball%2Ffootball-news%2Feverton-news-transfers-live-walcott-17676895) on Monday that the World Cup winner managed eight tackles, the most of any player for the club this season.

On the back of this, a number of supporters have called on the club to make certain that Sidibe’s future remains on Merseyside beyond the current campaign.
