Journalist Alan Myers has commented on rumors surrounding Sekou Koita’s potential move to Everton.
On Wednesday, July 3, Myers responded to a query on X about Koita being close to signing, simply stating he had “no idea” about the truth of these claims.
Despite Myers’ uncertainty, Africa Foot reported on the same day that Everton is poised to acquire the free agent, who recently departed RB Salzburg.
The outlet claims all terms have been agreed upon, with only minor details left to finalize before the contract is signed.
Everton’s Transfer Window Heats Up with Koita Deal on the Horizon
Excitement is building among Everton supporters as the club appears to be on the verge of signing former RB Salzburg forward Sekou Koita on a free transfer.
The Malian striker is set to join compatriot Abdoulaye Doucoure at Goodison Park.
This potential acquisition is just one aspect of Everton’s busy summer transfer window under manager Sean Dyche.
The club has already made significant moves, including:
- Retaining Jarrad Branthwaite despite interest from Manchester United
- Securing Iliman Ndiaye from Marseille for £15 million
- Pursuing Hull City winger Jaden Philogene
- Showing interest in Hellas Verona right-back Jackson Tchatchoua
Koita’s impressive record of 42 goals in 103 appearances for Salzburg suggests he could be a valuable addition to Everton’s attacking options.
While some players may depart, Everton’s proactive approach in the transfer market indicates their ambition to strengthen the squad across multiple positions.
These moves are generating optimism among fans for the upcoming Premier League season.
