View: Everton risk missing out on Coleman replacement as Fabrizio Romano issues £8.4m update

Everton target Jackson Tchatchoua has been subject to an £8.4million offer from Rennes, according to Fabrizio Romano.

The reliable transfer news journalist reported on X on 22 July that there are other clubs keen on the Verona right-back and that negotiations are ongoing.

Gazzetta dello Sport that the 22-year-old right-back has set his sights on a move to Goodison Park amid links to the Toffees.

Romano wrote: “Rennes have submitted proposal for Verona RB Jackson Tchatchoua — worth €10m package, add-ons included.

“Negotiations ongoing with more clubs also interested.”

Jackson Tchatchoua can replace Seamus Coleman at Everton

The club’s pursuit of Tchatchoua as a potential replacement for Seamus Coleman seems to be facing stiff competition.

The Cameroon international’s versatility and performance in Serie A with Verona make him an attractive prospect for the Toffees.

He has shown promise as a right-back, contributing defensively and in the final third and at 22, he’s young enough to be Coleman’s long-term replacement and he’s also got an exemplary fitness record.

Everton must also submit a bid for Jackson Tchatchoua

However, Everton must act quickly and decisively to secure Tchatchoua’s services.

With Rennes already submitting an offer and other clubs also interested, the Toffees cannot afford to hesitate.

The Merseyside outfit should make a competitive offer that not only matches Rennes’ bid but also demonstrates their commitment to strengthening the squad.

This move could be crucial in Everton’s efforts to improve their performance in the upcoming season and address their right-back issues.
