Everton have been linked with the Lille defender Gabriel for a while now.
As per Le 10 Sport (via Sportwitness), the Toffees are in pole position to land the young defender this summer but they aren’t the only ones after him.
Apparently, Leicester City are expected to submit an offer of over €35m for the 22-year-old player.
Everton have already made a €35m offer for Gabriel, which includes bonuses. Furthermore, the player has visited the club’s facilities.
Carlo Ancelotti is thought to be keen on signing the defender as well and he has spoken to Gabriel already.
