Everton go for Barcelona pair Yerry Mina and Lucas Digne

Everton are moving for Barcelona pair Yerry Mina and Lucas Digne.

The Mirror says new Blues boss Marco Silva has already sanctioned the pursuit of Barca's World Cup star Yerry Mina , who was outstanding for Colombia, but now finds himself surplus to requirements at the Nou Camp.

And Silva wants to take Digne from the Catalan giants too, with the France defender now resigned to moving on from Spain, after his huge disappointment at missing out on the World Cup squad through lack of game time.

The 24 year old defender joined Barca from Roma in 2016 for £15m, but he made just eight La Liga starts all season, and that has cost him a place in the World Cup final.

He has been told he can leave by the Spanish club at the right price, and that could be BELOW the £25m Everton have been quoted for the promising young Celtic left back Kieran Tierney.
