Everton join race for Saint-Étienne’s Zuriko Davitashvili

According to Foot Mercato, Everton have entered the race for AS Saint-Étienne playmaker Zuriko Davitashvili, whose impressive Ligue 2 campaign has attracted growing attention across Europe.

The Georgia international has been a key figure for Les Verts this season, contributing eight goals and one assist in 16 league appearances as Saint-Étienne sit third in Ligue 2 and push for an immediate return to the top flight. His performances have not gone unnoticed, with Fenerbahçe long tracking the 23-year-old, while Beşiktaş previously explored a move.

Despite mounting interest, ASSE’s ownership group, Kilmer Sports, are said to be unwilling to sanction a winter sale. However, Foot Mercato adds that the player and his entourage may not be fully aligned with the club’s stance, suggesting a potentially tense January ahead.
