According to The Sun, Everton are interested in signing Getafe centre-back Djene Dakonam, but they face competition from Tottenham Hotspur.
Arsenal, Bournemouth, Southampton and Crystal Palace are also keen on the Togo international, and AS Monaco have already seen a £13 million bid knocked back, with the La Liga outfit holding out for £22 million.
New Toffees boss Carlo Ancelotti knows he needs to strengthen the defence after it shipped 32 goals in 22 games, and Djene could be a fine addition.
The 28-year-old made the La Liga Teams of the Year for the 2017-18 and 2018-19 seasons after impressive individual campaigns, and it’s not a surprise that Spurs’ boss Jose Mourinho also wants him.
