It must be noted that the right-back will soon be heading off to the World Cup to represent the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Everton have five positions they are keen to upgrade this summer and right-back is certainly one that has caused the club issues this season.

Wan-Bissaka is a player who Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher has praised incredibly highly over the years.

What Jamie Carragher previously said about Wan-Bissaka

The 28-year-old made 23 Premier League starts for West Ham this season, but did not feature in the final game of the season against Leeds United.

Wan-Bissaka was able to provide three assists in the English top flight, yet it is his defensive ability that really stands out.

‘I actually think Wan-Bissaka is the best one-on-one defender as a full-back in the world. I don’t think anyone would get the better of him,” Carragher said on Sky Sports a number of years ago.

With Seamus Coleman departing, Jake O’Brien naturally a centre-back and Patterson’s future up in the air, there could be room for two right-backs to be added.

Everton may be crying out for an attack-minded right-back, but potentially having Wan-Bissaka as well could mark smart business from the Blues.

With the World Cup kick-off in a matter of weeks, this is a deal which Everton could do with getting over the line quickly.
