Everton are still hopeful of getting the services of Wilfried Gnonto this summer.
According to Football Insider, Leeds United are expected to reach an agreement with Everton for the sale of Wilfried Gnonto in the coming days.
The Toffees are likely to make a bid of roughly £20 million soon, which will assist The Whites earn a profit as they try to balance their books before investing in the market.
The 19-year-old is well respected despite his age in his home country but only Serie A side Napoli expressed a definite interest to sign him. However, the Partenopei need to raise money before embarking on signing a new player. This situation currently leaves Everton as the front-runner in the race to land Gnonto.
Leeds United face a big financial problem following their recent relegation from the Premier League, since they may only be able to offload some of its players on loan. Permanent sales are necessary to raise revenue and balance the books.
Wilfried Gnonto joined the club in 2022 for a cost of little under £4 million from FC Zurich. A future £20 million sale would result in a direct profit on the initial investment, as the player’s worth grows by the day. Everton boss Sean Dyche expects the young forward to provide diversity and efficiency to his team’s attack in the coming season.
