Maxwel Cornet has reportedly been added to Everton’s shopping list ahead of the transfer deadline, with any possible move giving Sean Dyche the chance to link back up with the man he signed for Burnley.
The Ivorian winger joined the Clarets from Lyon in 2021 but couldn’t prevent them from going down to the Championship that season.
He was linked with Everton a year ago but joined West Ham instead in a £17m deal and played 22 times for the Hammers last season, without adding to his tally of 9 Premier League goals.
Cornet could be surplus to requirements at the London Stadium now that David Moyes has been adding to his squad and, according to Sport Mail, The Mirror and now the The Telegraph, Everton are interested as they seek to add depth in the wide positions.
It was thought that if the interest is geuine, Kevin Thelwell will be looking at a season-long loan for Cornet but it appears as though either a temporary or a permanent deal is under consideration.
