New Everton Defender Lucas Digne Urges Former Teammate & Man Utd Target to Join Him at Goodison Park

New Everton defender Lucas Digne has urged his former teammate, Yerry Mina, to follow him to Goodison Park.

The French left-back joined the Toffees earlier this week, signing a five-year deal with the Merseyside outfit following an initial £18m agreement between Everton and Barcelona.

Mina, meanwhile, is believed to be on the verge of moving to Manchester United. Spanish publication Mundo Deportivo are reporting that United already have a deal in place with the Colombia international and only need Barcelona to accept their transfer offer.

Mina, who starred for the South American nation at the 2018 World Cup - scoring three goals to equal the record for most goals scored by a defender in a single tournament - is understood to be intent on moving to Old Trafford.
