Idrissa Gueye’s protracted return to Everton is finally heading towards conclusion.
The Blues have been in negotiations over the Senegal international with Paris Saint-Germain for over a fortnight after while Frank Lampard had initially wanted Gueye to be part of his squad ahead of the opening game of the season against his previous employers Chelsea, they have suffered back-to-back defeats without him.
Last week, Everton officials were becoming increasingly frustrated over hold-ups after offering the player what they considered to be a very attractive offer but the ECHO understands that those problems have now been ironed out and the club are increasingly hopeful that a deal will be done.
