Barcelona Reportedly Offered £22 Million by Everton for Disgruntled Lucas Digne

Everton have reportedly made a bid in excess of £22 million for Barcelona full-back Lucas Digne.

According to the Mirror's David Anderson, Toffees manager Marco Silva has identified him as a long-term replacement for Leighton Baines on Merseyside and the club have offered €25 million plus add-ons for the Frenchman.

Barca want to keep Digne as back-up to Jordi Alba, but the 25-year-old is said to be "unsettled" after he missed out on a place in France's FIFA World Cup-winning squad due to a lack of minutes on the pitch.
