According to Paul Joyce of The Times, Everton are set to sign Niels Nkounkou from French outfit Olympique Marseille.
The 19-year-old left-back has turned down a new contract at the French club, and he is all set to join the Merseyside outfit.
Everton are looking to bolster their defense this summer, and it seems they have found an exciting young talent.
Nkounkou is primarily a left-back but can also play in midfield. The most important thing is he will arrive on a free transfer. He had spent two years at Marseille.
