Everton targets Timothy Castagne for right-back position
Summary

Everton is interested in signing Fulham defender Timothy Castagne to address their right-back needs, according to The Athletic. With the exit of long-serving captain Seamus Coleman and Nathan Patterson falling out of favor, Everton is actively seeking a new option. Castagne, who joined Fulham in 2023, is seen as an affordable choice who can offer both reliability and versatility across the defensive line. Fulham may be willing to let him go with one year remaining on his contract. Everton is also considering Daniel Munoz from Crystal Palace as an alternative. The club, having just concluded pre-season with a 1-1 draw against Lille, aims to finalize transfers before their season opener against Crystal Palace.
