Everton set to land Barcelona star on permanent deal

Sky Sports have claimed that Gerard Deulofeu could well be on his way to Goodison Park in a permanent deal as Everton look to buy the forward from Barcelona.

The player of course spend time on loan at the club and we were impressed by his drive and attacking mind, and thought that he brought some much needed pace to the Everton side at times – not to mention guile, so a deal for only £2.2 million is certainly something we approve of.

As one of our punters notes over a beer and burger by the bar, we think that the Toffees will be looking to have a top class season next term after losing their way last time out and landing players like the Barcelona star can go a long way towards doing this.

Everton fans. Is this going to be the biggest move you will make this summer? Did the star impress enough when he was on loan to justify this move? Let us know your thoughts below.
