Traore not ruling out signing for Everton permanently
Evertons new signing Lacina Traore has refused to rule out signing permanently for the club, but insists anything that could happen will depend on how he performs.
In a very strange transfer, Traore signed for French club AS Monaco from Anzhi Makhachkala and was immediately loaned out to Everton with reports that Monaco coach, Claudio Ranieri never wanted to sign the striker.
Traore insists that the loan move is only for 6 months but all parties will discuss it at the end of the season and see what happens as he is playing in the top league in the world.
“I belong to Monaco and it’s my club, but this is a loan for six months”, he told a press conference today.
“So it’s a case of looking where we are at the end of the season. And if I can put in some good performances, you just don’t know what will happen.
“It’s a league which gets lots and lots of top players and lot of media coverage throughout the world. So it’s a dream to be here.
“I’m also aware of the World Cup looming. I suppose all players involved will be wanting a chance to get there.”
