No, hes just been at Inter for nearly 2 years now and we sold him last summer.
Yes I know we got £0 and 0p for him.

BBC reporting we've now made contact with Real over Varane!

Messi's a "Free", but he's not leaving Barca, they just can't afford him

We need to get someone young. He is over priced and not worth the money.
Yup, there president has said his deal is being held up due to FFP rules.Messi's a "Free", but he's not leaving Barca, they just can't afford him
So there probably trying to fudge the books

Why would we need someone young? Varane is 28 he has plenty of time ahead of him.
Some clubs like to buy young players and then coach them to greatness. Liverpool have been quite good at this with some of their players and I'm expecting great things of Konaté once he's used to the pace of the league. Of course Liverpool do sometimes buy as well, VVD, Mané, Allisson etc. but then you have Trent and Jones coming through the ranks, Robbo has improved vastly since he signed as well. United have some history with younger players too it's true, but there seems to be more of an attitude of buy first.

You realise we have one of the best records with academy players amongst top teams in the world?

I really don’t think Messi will come to England. He’s 34 now and I think will struggle badly in the premier league. Certainly wouldn’t be half the player he is for Barca.
He’s much more likely to take a big payday at PSG or even nip across the states to the MLS. Has the sniff of an Inter Miami signing to me.
I mean, as a rich man, where would you rather live, Manchester, Paris or Miami?

Can Everton seriously afford £50m+ on a defender?

That’s all nonsense. Deal has been done. Ben White will be an Arsenal player unless Arsenal pull out.

Only way they’ve got that money to spend is if they cash in on Richarlison

Just a casual look shows the most they've ever spent on a defender is 27m on Mina, I'd just be surprised if they doubled that.
