Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano has hinted at a potential move from Everton for Norwich City defender Max Aarons this summer.

Kevin Campbell says Arsenal will reject chance to sign Leeds United target
Former Arsenal striker Kevin Campbell believes the Gunners will snub the option to sign Crystal Palace defender Patrick van Aanholt this summer. The north London club were eyeing a back-up option for left-back Kieran Tierney in January after deciding to loan out Sead Kolasinac to Schalke 04. Van Aanholt was mentioned as a potential target before the deadline, but nothing materialised beyond the transfer speculation. The Dutchman’s current deal expires at the end of June and, as things stand, he will be available on a free transfer in a few months. It was recently suggested that Leeds United could rival the Gunners for the 30-year-old, but Campbell feels his former side may look for a younger option. He told Football Insider: “Van Aanholt could be a shrewd signing on a free, but I think the...

Everton reportedly willing to cash in on Colombian to fund Koulibaly move
Everton are willing to sell defender Yerry Mina to fund a move for Napoli centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly, according to Football Insider. The Toffees were linked with a move for Koulibaly last week, which came as a surprise to many Everton fans. With Yerry Mina, Michael Keane, Ben Godfrey and Mason Holgate in the squad, it made little sense for Everton to target a central defender. The Toffees will also have promising youngster Jarrad Branthwaite returning from his loan spell with Blackburn Rovers this summer. However, Football Insider now report that Yerry Mina could be sacrificed to sign Koulibaly due to his erratic nature. They claim that Carlo Ancelotti ‘admires Mina physically’ but privately believes he is ‘too erratic and error-prone for a top-tier side’. As a result, Everton coul...
