Should Everton make Djibril Sidibe's loan move to Goodison Park permanent?Yes, he's been class
No, not just yet |
For his troubles against Frank Lampard’s outfit, the man on loan from AS Monaco for the season, with an option to buy, picked up a 7/10 match rating (as per Liverpool Echo).
With four assists in 11 games for the Toffees so far this season (per Transfermarkt), Everton fans are growing increasingly infatuated with the right-back, which began to gush following the Twitter post.
Sign him

What do we think?
Having found a starting place difficult to come by under Marco Silva in the early stages of the season, Sidibe has come into his own after being given the chance to shine for the Goodison Park club.
The £10.8-million rated man has a clause in his loan contract which would allow the Toffees to secure his services on a permanent basis (as per BBC), which it is doubtless that they would look to realise should his current form continue.
