Rafa Benitez reflects on Lucas Digne’s future

Everton boss says Digne has requested a move away from the club.

Lucas Digne

has not featured for

Everton

since his last month feud with the manager.

Newcastle, Leicester, Chelsea and West Ham are all interested in the Frenchman and a move away from Goodison Park for the 28-year-old left-back.

Reflecting on Digne’s future at the club, Everton’s manager Rafa Benitez said:

“We have some conversations. He told me what he thought. So what do you expect the manager to do when a player is thinking about leaving?

"We need commitment. We don't need enquiries. I am not in charge of the negotiations but when someone is asking, they have to commit themselves and say 'I will buy'."

He added:

“I have no explanation. We are professionals, we are paid big money to do our job... In modern football, maybe the priorities have changed and people think about themselves ahead of the team.

“The 31st January, if he's here then we have to start doing what we have to do. At the moment, in his head, he has what he has and we have to deal with the players that are here.”
