M’Baye Niang’s return to AC Milan could be a short-lived one as Everton are reportedly ready to keep the forward in England.
Watford signed the 22-year-old on loan in January, but he made it clear he has no intention of staying at Vicarage Road for another campaign.
As a result Niang will return to Milan this summer, but SportItalia reports Everton are prepared to sign the forward on a permanent deal.
Ronald Koeman is said to be a big fan of the former Caen forward, and it’s believed he’s ready to spend as much as €16 million to secure his target.
Niang netted three goals in 18 Serie A appearances for Milan this season before joining Watford, where he netted twice in 16 matches.
