Everton are reportedly monitoring the highly-rated Stanis Idumbo ahead of a January transfer.
Idumbo is currently plying his trade at Sevilla and caught the eye of the Toffees during their recent game against Barcelona, according to Caught Offside.
The winger has only broken into the first-team squad this season meaning that any deal to bring him to Goodison Park would require a hefty transfer fee.
So, with that, let’s take a look at everything you need to know about Everton’s latest transfer target.
Who is Stanis Idumbo?
Stanis Idumbo is a professional footballer currently playing for Sevilla.
He started his career at Club Brugge and Gent in Belgium before moving to the Netherlands to join Ajax.
Idumbo spent two years at the Dutch giants but never played for their first team before joining Sevilla in January 2024.
After linking up with the youth team, Idumbo has since forced his way into the senior squad and scored his first professional goal against Barcelona in the 5-1 defeat on 20 October 2024
Stanis Idumbo’s age and height
Idumbo was born on 29 June 2005, making him 19 at the time of writing.
He was born in Melun, France but has represented Belgium at youth level and is of DR Congolese descent.
The 19-year-old stands at five feet and seven inches tall (170cm), meaning he would be one of the smaller players in the Everton squad.

What position does Stanis Idumbo play?
Idumbo is an attacking midfielder who can play anywhere across the front line. His most effective role is as a central attacking midfielder, where he has two goals from two games.
That doesn’t mean to say he isn’t comfortable in any other position across the line and as proved during his time at Ajax, is capable of being effective all over the pitch.

The youngster also has no hesitation in taking on full-backs, bamboozling them with trickery and skill to leave them for dead.
