The World Cup winning full-back has long been linked with a move to the Premier League, and has already been linked with West Ham United and Crystal Palace. However, it seems Everton have beaten the Hammers and other suitors to the signature of the 27-year-old. Sidibe helped Monaco to the Ligue 1 title in 2016, and had the likes of Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal, Manchester United and Manchester City all keen on his signature.
