Everton set to move for Southampton defender
Everton look set to make a move for wantaway Southampton defender Jose Fonte according to the Mirror.
The 33 year old central defender has handed in a transfer request at Saint Marys and the South Coast club are rumoured to want as much as £12m for the player.
Evertonians are bound to be wary of the move due to the age of the Everton defence, which is currently being marshalled by 34 year old Phil Jagielka, 32 year old Ashley Williams and 32 year old Leighton Baines.
Fonte has been dropped from the Southampton EFL Cup squad against Liverpool after handing in a transfer request.
Would signing Fonte be a wise move or should we move for someone younger?
