Everton are reportedly interested in Toulouse midfielder Ibrahim Sangare – and some of the club’s supporters on Twitter are thrilled with the speculation.

According to L’Equipe, the Toffees are keen on the 21-year-old midfielder that has impressed in the French top-flight during the most recent season.

It is understood that Tottenham are also admirers of him, but the player would prefer to stay with Ligue 1 side Toulouse for another year.

The report does explain though that a deal between £17.75million and £22.2million could be enough to tempt a potential sale.

Sangare is a rising talent in French football that is most recognised as a defensive midfielder, but he can play a box-to-box role with runs forward.

Central midfielder Andre Gomes was a success during his loan spell at the club, but they need some more options at Goodison Park.

Here are some Everton fans that are pleased about the interest in Sangare:
