Is Lucas Digne the best defender that Everton currently have?Yes, by far the bestNo, not quite yet |
During this term, the left-back has featured for the Merseyside club on 20 occasions in league and cup, in which he has netted once and assisted four times (as per Transfermarkt).
In what has, so far, been a poor season for Everton, Digne has stood firm and has a hugely respectable 7.04/10 average rating for the season so far (per Whoscored), making Everton fans keen for him to stay.
Not going anywhere, especially is Ancelotti is the manager. Players will want to stay and play for him.

What do we think?
It seems as though Everton fans are all firmly united in their opinion, Digne is going nowhere and it seems as though it would be a big surprise if the Frenchman was to depart for his home country.
