Report: Everton join Arsenal in pursuit of left-footed free agent
🔜 that Everton have joined the race to sign free agent Layvin Kurzawa with the PSG defender’s contract set to expire in less than a fortnight – with Arsenal already linked.
▨Kurzawa, 27, has seemingly played his last game for PSG as he is one of a number of players set to leave the French champions for nothing. Thomas Meunier, Thiago Silva and Edinson Cavani are also set to leave on a free.
💧Spanish outlet Sport claimed France international Kurzawa was keen on a move to Arsenal, with the Gunners tempting the left-footed flyer the most out of those he had spoken to.
💦The Gunners already boast Kieran Tierney and Sead Kolasinac – while Bukayo Saka can also play as a left-back. Now, Everton have joined the race, with Carlo Ancelotti ‘carefully’ looking at Kurzawa.

TBR’s view – Do Everton need Kurzawa?
🍎The Toffees are set to lose both Leighton Baines and Luke Garbutt on a free transfer this summer, leaving Lucas Digne as the only available left-sided defender in the first-team squad.
ꦛSo, Everton need cover – or competition – for Digne. Kurzawa is available for nothing, but his contract is likely to be an expensive one. Would he join Everton with the likelihood that he may be second choice?
🎐Secondly, would Everton hand out a big contract only for Kurzawa to play second fiddle to Digne? It remains to be seen – but it is certainly unlikely.
