Idrissa Gueye arrived at Paris Saint-Germain last summer from Everton FC and played an important role throughout the season. However, according to a recent report, his time in the French capital may be cut short.
The Senegal international made 31 appearances for PSG this season, including 20 in Ligue 1 and six in the UEFA Champions League. Gueye had some bright moments during the season, like his performance against Real Madrid and the Parc des Princes, but he had stinkers as well (away match against Borussia Dortmund).
Gueye’s inconsistent play is likely the reason why journalist Roberto Carlo recently tweeted that Leonardo, PSG’s sporting director, is open to selling the 30-year-old midfielder.
Léonardo a place gueye sur la liste des transferts !!!! Si une belle offre arrive au PSG le joueur sera vendu !!!

Everton fans were sad to see Gueye leave and there’s no question that he’s a fan-favorite amongst the Evertonians.
With this recent news, fans of The Blues took to Twitter to share their desire to see Gueye return to the Premier League.
Rumours have emerged tonight from France that PSG are willing to sell Idrissa Gana Gueye!
Would you like Everton to go back for him? 🇸🇳🔵 #efc https://t.co/rIcEEbTSDS pic.twitter.com/nwzQ9Rx0v5

100% – What a player he was for us, So underestimated but effective – Surprised they are looking to let him go as every time I’ve watched them play he has been superb! I’d give them the 30m back aswell

Take every cent we have and buy him back IMMEDIATELY!!!!
— GD (@Bored__thriller) May 24, 2020
I’ll drive to Paris to pick him up; surely this would be classed as essential travel💙

Not everyone is sold on the idea of a reunion with Gueye…
If true they probably realised that whats the point in winning the ball back so much if your just going to pass it back the opposite straight away

I agree mate, we wasn’t exactly challenging the top 6 in midfield when he was here. We should be looking younger and better

Naaaaagh too old. He was great for us but he’s gone. Rebuild for the future.
