One year after joining Villarreal, Pape Gueye could already be packing his bags. Having delivered a convincing season under the Yellow Submarine's colours, the Senegalese midfielder has reportedly given his verbal agreement to Everton.
A profile tailor-made for the Premier League
The Lion of Teranga is no stranger to English football: he has already experienced England during a loan spell at Watford, and would therefore be returning to a league whose intensity perfectly matches his qualities. Powerful in the tackle, capable of breaking lines with the ball at his feet and making an impact in duels, Gueye represents a prime target to strengthen the Toffees' midfield.
Club negotiations set to prove decisive
Discussions between Villarreal and Everton are now expected to intensify in order to reach an agreement on the transfer fee. Should the deal go through, the Merseyside club would pull off one of the finest moves of this early transfer window by securing a Senegalese international brimming with confidence.
At 27 years old, Pape Gueye appears ready to take on this new challenge and establish himself durably in one of the most demanding leagues in the world.
