Everton Lead Race for Rennes Striker Esteban Lepaul in £37m Transfer Pursuit
Everton have reportedly stepped up their interest in Rennes centre-forward Esteban Lepaul, with several Premier League sides also keeping tabs on the Frenchman, according to TEAMtalk.
Who Is Esteban Lepaul?
Rennes boss Franck Haise has called the 26-year-old “very complete”, and few strikers in Ligue 1 have enjoyed a rise quite like his. Lepaul came through Lyon’s academy but never played for the first team, later impressing at Épinal, Orléans and Angers before joining Rennes. He won the Ligue 1 top scorer award with 21 goals and has added four in six games this term, earning a call-up to Zinedine Zidane’s France squad.
