Everton, Palace among Prem battle for Lyon whiz Faivre

Everton are being linked with a move to sign Romain Faivre from Lyon this summer.

The midfielder enjoyed an impressive loan spell at Lorient last season, who want to sign him permanently.

Foot Mercato states there is a lot of interest in his services, with Bournemouth, Crystal Palace, and Fulham also in the picture.

Everton will have to move quickly if they are aiming to secure the France Under-21 star.

Faivre managed 26 appearances in Ligue 1 last season, scoring five goals and providing four assists.

He can play across the midfield, having lined up central midfield and on both wings in recent seasons.
