Everton and the inner circle of RC Strasbourg midfielder Habib Diarra have held talks, with the Ligue 1 club demanding €30-35 million to sell him this summer.
According to a report by Caught Offside, Habib Diarra is the subject of interest from Everton. The Toffees are keen on bolstering their midfield unit in the final month of the summer transfer window. So, they have identified the RC Strasbourg midfielder as a target, holding talks with his inner circle, with the Ligue 1 club demanding around €30-35 million to part ways with him.
Who is Habib Diarra?
Habib Diarra has established himself as one of the best young midfielders in Ligue 1 since breaking into the first-team squad at RC Strasbourg. A native of Guédiawaye, Senegal, he spent his formative years in France. The youngster began his youth career at FC Mulhouse before joining RC Strasbourg in 2018.
The 20-year-old made his first-team bow at the onset of the 2021/22 season. Since then, Diarra has come leaps and bounds, establishing himself as a pivotal figure for RC Strasbourg while turning out 69 times thus far for the Ligue 1 club while chipping in with seven goals and five assists.
Meanwhile, Habib Diarra’s progress at RC Strasbourg has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several well-known clubs across Europe, particularly in the Premier League. Reports in the last 12 months have linked the Senegalese international with Chelsea. However, Everton will look to beat the competition to the youngster’s signature in the summer transfer window.
Premier League move on the cards?
Everton’s interest in Habib Diarra is understandable. The Toffees are scouring the market for a midfielder heading into the final month of the summer transfer window after parting ways with Amadou Onana, who has joined Aston Villa. So, several candidates, including Weston McKennie, have emerged on Everton’s radar.
Diarra is also a viable target for the Merseyside club. The latest report has revealed talks between Everton and the RC Strasbourg midfielder’s inner circle. Meanwhile, the Ligue 1 club will demand around €30-35 million to part ways with the highly-rated 20-year-old midfielder in the summer transfer window.
It is unclear if Everton will be open to coughing up €30-35 million to secure Habib Diarra’s services in the summer transfer window. After selling Amadou Onana for a premium, meeting RC Strasbourg’s valuation might be possible.
