Everton change tack after Gnonto rebuff
Everton could give up on their attempts to sign Wilfred Gnonto.
They are facing decision time in their pursuit of the 19-year-old winger after having multiple approaches rejected by Leeds, and could now be forced to turn their attention to other targets.
One option they are looking at is a loan move for Kamaldeen Sulemana who they tried to sign from Rennes in the January transfer window, before he opted for Southampton.
He went on to make 10 Premier League starts, scoring two goals on the final day of the season in the 4-4 draw with Liverpool.
Brokering a deal for Gnonto is still not beyond the realms of possibility.
However, for it to happen there needs to be a dramatic change in attitude from Leeds, who have consistently knocked back Everton’s advances.
