Everton front runners to sign Gabriel Magalhaes

Everton have been linked with the Lille defender Gabriel Magalhaes for a while now.

As per Sky Sports, the Toffees are front runners to sign the player this summer along with Italian giants Napoli.

However, they will face competition from an unnamed Premier League club. Apparently, another English club has submitted a late bid for the Brazilian defender, thought to be in excess of £22m.

It will be interesting to see where Gabriel ends up this summer. He is highly rated across Europe and he could prove to be a superb addition to Ancelotti’s backline.
