Everton Nears Idrissa Gana Gueye Contract Renewal Amid Paris FC Interest

Everton is close to securing a contract extension with 35-year-old midfielder Idrissa Gana Gueye, who has been a key player for the club and is keen to remain on Merseyside. Despite interest from newly promoted Ligue 1 side Paris FC, which had considered signing him as a free agent, Everton has offered Gueye a new deal to retain his services ahead of their move to a new stadium. Gueye made 40 appearances last season and continues to be a vital presence in David Moyes' midfield, with fans and teammates praising his experience and leadership. The club is also navigating other contract negotiations and departures as part of a broader rebuilding effort. Talks between Everton and Gueye are progressing amicably, with both parties reportedly close to an agreement. Retaining Gueye is seen as crucial to Everton’s midfield stability as they prepare for the upcoming season.
