Former PSG Standout to Extend Contract With Everton Despite Paris FC Interest

On Thursday, Foot Mercato reported that Everton management has offered the Senegalese midfielder a contract extension and that the two parties are close to an agreement.

The report mentions that Paris FC eyed the player, but it appears that he will remain with Everton. Furthermore, he might not have wanted to play for the newly promoted Ligue 1 team out of respect for PSG, considering the player hasn’t forgotten his team in the French capital.

After PSG eliminated Liverpool from the Champions League Round of 16, the midfielder added “merci” to the video, thanking his former teammate for adding misery to the Toffees’ rival.
