Everton Boss Marco Silva "Threat of resignation" for the potential sale of Idrissa Gueye to PSG

Everton's manager, Marco Silva, reportedly threatened to resign from the club when he sold his midfielder Idrissa Gueye in Paris Saint Germain before transfer the window closed Thursday.

The former boss of Watford had a difficult delay, with his side performance extremely uneven, seeing them out of the FA Cup to go to Millwall last weekend and fall to eighth place in the Premier League table. After spending almost £ 90 million on new recruits last summer, Silva is under pressure to turn around.

according to Paris UnitedSilva hesitated over the suggestion of losing one of his key players in times of crisis and threatened to resign as Toffee manager if they allowed PSG to sign Gueye. It seems that the coach can very well get out of it, because the report also suggests that there was disagreement between the two clubs on their respective ratings of the player.

It has already been claimed that Gueye had submitted a transfer application to force his move in January, and that Arsenal and Manchester City had also expressed interest in the Senegalese international, which could cost a little under 30 millions of pounds. The deadline of transfer being famous for its shocks and its dramatic twists, one does not know how the saga will end tomorrow evening.

Gueye joined Everton in 2016 after impressing in his first season in England with Aston Villa, then in the Premier League. The defensive midfielder is renowned for his exceptional stamina and tenacious style of play. He brought real energy to the Toffees midfielder during his two and a half seasons at the club.

Meanwhile, Silva said his team deserved to be a winner on Tuesday night after beating Huddersfield Town to win 1-0. The Portuguese coach said his team had shown a lot of character and personality to retain his victory, after the defender Lucas Digne was sent off in the 66th minute for a foul on the Terriers attack Adama Diakhaby.
