Everton Keen On Signing Fabian Delph

By Joshua Walters

According to The Telegraph, Everton are set to sign Manchester City’s Fabian Delph for a fee of £8 million which could rise to £10m with add-ons.

With Everton’s manager Marco Silva aiming to improve his midfield department, the 42-year-old has urged the Toffees’ hierarchy to sign the player this summer.

Delph’s future at the Etihad stadium seems to be in the air after the side signed Atletico Madrid’s midfielder Rodri for a club record of £62.8 million as that will limit the former Aston Villa captain’s first-team opportunities.

And to enjoy more playing time next season, Goodison Park will be the best destination for the England international.

Delph made just eleven appearances for Manchester City in the 2018/19 Premier League season aside his six games in the Champions League.

Manchester City recruited the left-footed player from Aston Villa in 2015 for a reported fee of £8 million, having signed a five-year contract with the Premier League champions.

Since joining from Aston Villa, Delph has won two Premier League titles with the Citizens.

With just a year left on his current contract, Manchester City will have to offload him this time around so they do not lose him on a free transfer.
