Everton, Crystal Palace eyeing Marseille right-back Bouna Sarr

Marseille right-back Bouna Sarr is attracting Premier League interest.

Buzzsport reports Crystal Palace are hoping to beat Everton to the signing of Sarr who is available for a bargain £9million.

The 28-year-old is highly rated by his current boss Andre Villas-Boas, but like the Portuguese coach, he looks likely to try his luck in the Premier League.

Carlo Ancelotti has plenty of decisions to make when it comes to the right-back berth.

Captain Seamus Coleman is the long-standing first choice but turns 32 later this year, Djibril Sidibe is on loan from Monaco while home-grown hero Jonjoe Kenny has been farmed out himself this term to Bundesliga outfit Schalke.
