Everton are exploring a move for Milan Skriniar on loan before the transfer deadline, with PSG ready to ship out the Slovakian captain.
According to Calciomercato, Milan Skriniar has emerged as a surprise target for Premier League strugglers Everton. The Slovakia captain may depart PSG after being told he is out of their current project. However, the Toffees will face plenty of competition from domestic rivals and some prominent suitors from Italy.
Milan Skriniar on Everton’s radar
Milan Skriniar only joined PSG last summer on a free transfer after six seasons with Inter Milan, as this was seen as an opportunistic move from the Ligue 1 champions. He has been a solid presence for them under Luis Enqique’s first season. But the Spanish manager’s thinking may have changed throughout the summer.
The arrival of Willian Pacho does give Enrique the room to make some changes to his backline, with Lucas Beraldo and Marquinhos likely to be PSG’s primary centre-back options. The Ligue 1 champions have reportedly considered omitting Skriniar from their technical project for the coming season, which does leave the door open for an exit.
The report talks about PSG’s flexible approach to the Slovakia captain’s situation, as they are willing to loan him out should it come with a buy option. Milan Skriniar still has four years to run on his PSG deal, which does allow the club to let him leave on a temporary basis. There is a big market for his services if the Parisians can pay a chunk of his wages for the coming season. Surprisingly, Everton have now considered him as a target.
The Toffees may yet lose Jarrad Branthwaite late in the window, which could lead to Sean Dyche demanding a replacement. A signing like Skriniar will boost their backline, especially if they can keep their homegrown talent beyond the deadline. While it may sound ambitious from an Everton standpoint, any move will depend on the Slovakia captain and the choices he will have ahead of the next few days.
Everton facing Skriniar competition
Everton are a surprise name in consideration to make a move for Milan Skriniar. Still, they will find it extremely difficult to price the 29-year-old to Goodison Park, considering the level of competition anticipated. Juventus are one of the most prominent suitors, as they were chasing Jean-Clair Todibo earlier, before he joined West Ham, as they are still in the market for a new arrival.
The Bianconeri are Everton’s biggest threat in the race for Skriniar, especially because PSG are open to a loan move. The player himself might prefer a move back to Italy, where he knows the league well and was settled during his time as an Inter Milan player.
