AS Monaco is reportedly considering loaning Ivorian striker Lacina Traoré to Everton, despite having signed him for four and a half years at the beginning of the winter transfer window. West Ham had initially expressed interest in Traoré, but Everton is now seen as a potential destination for the Ivorian forward.
The decision to consider a loan deal for Traoré has raised questions about Monaco’s strategy, especially given the significant amount spent on acquiring him (almost 10 million euros). Traoré’s potential loan move to Everton could provide competition for Romelu Lukaku and serve as a valuable addition to the squad.
The details of Monaco’s decision to potentially loan Traoré, who could be a complementary starter alongside Falcao, remain unclear. The club’s leadership will be the ones to provide insights into the reasoning behind this move.
