Everton interested in signing Lyon striker Bertrand Traore

Everton are looking for young attacking players in the summer window and could be turning to France to land a former Chelsea man.

According to Yahoo Sports France, the Toffees have shown increased interest in Bertrand Traore and could table a bid sooner rather than later.

Traore moved from the Blues to Lyon in 2017 for €10m and has been one of their better players overall, scoring 29 goals and contributing 11 assists in 89 appearances in all competitions with the Ligue 1 side.

However, over the last two months, the 23-year-old has seen his role at the club dramatically decrease, making just two starts over that period of time.

Still very much a budding talent, it wouldn’t be surprising to see the winger exact his revenge on a Premier League which proved to be too much for him just a couple seasons ago.
