The Telegraph are reporting that Everton want to sign Kurt Zouma permanently from Chelsea.
The France defender had a really impressive season on loan with the Toffees, and it seems like he will be a major target for them this summer. It’s not a question of whether they want him at this stage, it’s a question of whether we think we can lose him.
Clearly they are willing to pay big money, and they have the money behind them to make serious moves. But with Antonio Rudiger out injured and a transfer ban in place, surely we can’t sell Zouma full time?
No matter how tempting the offer is, we’re just too to sell anyone at this stage without the chance to repeat them, until January at the very least.
You can see a situation here where Chelsea could be persuaded to sell, but not one where we think it’s necessary to sell him this season, where he could well go into the season as an important part for us.
