And he could now be poised for a return after helping Les Parisiens win two Ligue 1 titles, two Coupe de France's and one Coupe de la Ligue. According to L'Equipe, the Senegal international is one of ten men up for sale by PSG, who have labelled the players as 'undesirables'. Gueye was even left out of Les Parisiens' pre-season tour of Japan with the club keen for him to find a new team. PSG are desperate to cash in on the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations winner with the player having just one year left on his contract. And according to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, Frank Lampard is looking to snap up Gueye in his quest to bolster his midfield. He tweeted: "Everton have approached Paris Saint-Germain for Gana Gueye. "He's one of the names in the list but talks are still at early stages, discussions will continue in the next days.

But Spurs opted to press ahead with a move for Yves Bissouma from Brighton instead. Should Gueye re-join Everton, he would be the club's third summer signing following the arrivals of James Tarkowski and Ruben Vinagre. SunSport understands that the Toffees are also closing in on Dwight McNeil from Burnley in a fee rising to £20m. McNeil was at Everton's Finch Farm training ground for a medical on Wednesday.

After Everton announced Ruben Vinagre’s return to the Premier League – the former Wolverhampton Wanderers whizzkid arriving on a loan-to-buy deal from Portuguese giants Sporting Lisbon – Dwight McNeil was confirmed as the third new face to join Frank Lampard’s squad since the Toffees survived relegation by the skin of their teeth in May. According to The Athletic, Everton will pay Burnley £20 million for the England U21 international. But while the speculation over McNeil’s future can be put to bed, the debate over how best to utilise the versatile playmaker is only just beginning. Dwight McNeil joins Everton McNeil, The Athletic adds, sees himself more a central midfielder, or a number 10.
