Lucas Digne: Newcastle offer Everton £22.5m plus Sean Longstaff for France left-back | Football News

Newcastle United have offered Everton £22.5m plus Sean Longstaff for Lucas Digne.

Chelsea and West Ham are also interested in the France left-back and could rival Newcastle for his signature this month.

Sky Sports News has been told Everton want around £30m for Digne, who they signed from Barcelona in 2018.

Everton boss Rafa Benitez previously worked with 24-year-old midfielder Longstaff at Newcastle and would like to be reunited, while defender Digne is out of favour at Goodison.

Napoli are another side keen on striking a deal for the 28-year-old, though the Italian club are only interested in a loan deal with an option to buy, which does not fit with Everton’s demands.

There is also an unnamed fourth Premier League club that want Digne.
