Atalanta and Lyon are both ready to make improved bids for Everton defender Ben Godfrey, according to HITC.
The news outlet reported on 26 June that there are a number of Premier League clubs also keen on securing his services.
Atalanta and Lyon have both made opening bids but the Toffees are keen on keeping the 26-year-old at the club.
Everton must look to spark a bidding war for Ben Godfrey
The Toffees should aim to initiate a bidding war due to Godfrey’s age and potential suggesting he could command a significant transfer fee, which could help the club balance their finances and potentially reinvest in the squad.
The club’s stance on keeping the 26-year-old indicates his importance to the team.
If multiple clubs are interested, it suggests he is highly valued in the market.
This situation provides them with an opportunity to leverage the interest to their advantage, potentially securing a higher fee or favourable terms.
While Godfrey is a decent option to have on the bench, Sean Dyche knows that every player has their price.
If a decent amount of money comes in and the club promise him that a suitable replacement will be signed, he would be open to it.
In other Everton news, the Toffees have made an approach to sign a midfielder at a side that recently won the Champions League.
