Loads of Everton fans have been reacting to a transfer report from France, as the Toffees are reportedly eyeing a mega deal for Red Bull Leipzig youngster Jean-Kevin Augustin.

According to France Football (via GFFN), Everton are all set to launch a formal bid for Augustin.

RB Leipzig of course spent most of the summer trying to sign Everton youngster Ademola Lookman, and the report claims the Toffees will turn the tables with a €40m (about £36m) offer for 21 year-old Augustin.

The young Frenchman plays mostly as a centre forward, but can also play on the wings due to his pace and trickery.

He has scored 20 times in 59 appearances for Leipzig while also adding eight assists, and he has five goals in nine appearances for the French Under-21 side.

The versatile young talent has been subject to controversy recently over his refusal to take part in a French Under-21 match because he was “tired”, only to appear in a club friendly during that same international break.
