UMSNT winger Timothy Weah has knocked back the chance to join Everton on loan for the remainder of the season according to a report.
Ed Aarons of The Guardian has tweeted that the 23-year-old was a target for the Blues this month but that he has rejected a potential temporary switch to Goodison Park.
Weah has seen his prospects of regular starts at Juve diminish since sustaining a thigh injury last November and a return of just one goal all season.
He has been in Max Allegri’s starting XI just once in the last seven games but appears to prefer remaining in Turin to trying his hand in the Premier League and assisting Everton’s battle against relegation.
The cash-strapped Toffees are not expected to make any moves to make permanent signings but are thought to be on the lookout for loan opportunities before the transfer deadline later this week.
Meanwhile, according to Fabrizio Romano, Benfica are not willing to let young winger Florentino Luiz join Everton “despite recent talks” over a loan move.
