Report: Everton want Brahim Konate

Auxerre youngster Brahim Konate has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Premier League side Everton.

The 19-year-old has made three league appearances for his Ligue 2 side this season and it is understood that the teenager is currently attracting interest from a number of European clubs.

According to Le 10 Sport, however, Everton are currently making the strongest noises in relation to the midfielder, who could be sold in the upcoming January transfer window.

Auxerre, who won the French championship in the 1995-96 season, were relegated from France's top flight in 2012 and only finished ninth in the second tier last term.
