Report: Everton, Manchester United and Southampton want Jean-Clair Todibo
Barcelona defender Jean-Clair Todibo could have several options to come to the Premier League in the near future, that Everton, Manchester United and Southampton are all interested in the youngster.
Todibo has been a peripheral figure since moving to the Nou Camp. The 19-year-old has only made a handful of appearances since joining at the start of the year.
that a number of teams want Todibo, with the Toffees, Saints and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer all showing interest.
And Sport notes that Barca are open to selling the teenager. However, it is suggested that the Catalan giants want to agree a clause that would allow them to potentially re-sign Todibo in the next couple of years.
Sport adds that Manchester United are not interested in a buy-back clause. And that seemingly leaves them with an uphill battle trying to sign the former Toulouse man as Barcelona are not reportedly interested in cutting all ties with the Frenchman.
TBR View – Ancelotti’s first inspired addition?
Incoming Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti is surely going to prioritise a new defender in January. The Toffees lack numbers in that area of the field. And it would arguably be a risk to not make a signing while the window is open next month.
Goodison Park could be ideal for Todibo. Learning under Ancelotti could be fantastic for his development. And he stands a good chance of playing regularly due to Everton’s lack of options.
It may not be ideal to have to agree a buy-back clause. But Everton agreed a similar deal to land Gerard Deulofeu, so perhaps that will not put them off this time around.
