    Kone's going nowhere. Why are we even discussing it?

    To repeat, an initial bid should be £25million plus for us to even respond.

    He's a beast.

    Walkes is a CB. Yedlin at LB. If I'm watching the Sunderland game via VPN, from here, I don't see why you can't watch the Spurs replays from there, on ESPN3, if you like.

    It's not about Spurs, its about a pair of RB's, playing at the same time, who have been suggested by some, on here, as transfer targets.

    They'll play hard ball now and we'll not pay the fee for him plus if he plays well with his pace another club will bid for him.

    Just looked at the Spurs team that we beat opening game 07/08 season. Chopra 90 min goal.

    I can see at least 6 of that team that went on to play for safc.

    Everton are keen to sign Sunderland defender Lamine Kone and will offer a fee in the region of £17 million to tempt him to Goodison Park, according to The Northern Echo.

    The Ivory Coast international moved to Wearside from Lorient in January and played a considerable part in keeping the Stadium of Light outfit in the top tier of English football.

    Ronald Koeman has money to spend after taking over as Toffees boss and has reported identified Kone as a new addition.

    The Merseysiders face a battle to keep hold of John Stones this summer amid interest from Manchester City and as such the African enforcer could well be a replacement.

    Sunderland boss David Moyes is said to be desperate to keep Kone at the club, despite landing Papy Djilobodji from Chelsea on Friday.

    Kone scored the equaliser for Sunderland in their latest 1-1 pre-season friendly draw against Borussia Dortmund and chipped in two important goals last season in the Premier League.

    You see the middle bit is encouraging, we now have 4 centre halves, with Kabouls injury record and JOS not getting any younger, this is the number we need going into next season.

    So sorry Everton we would need to get a replacement in first and if Stones is worth 50m then Kone is worth at least 25m. I know which one I would rather have.

    On another note I thought Kone had just signed a new contract?

    Lamine Kone is ready to shun interest from Arsenal, Chelsea and Everton

    Sunderland's Lamine Kone scores against Borussia Dortmund

    According to the Daily Mail, Sunderland defender Lamine Kone wants to stay at the Stadium of Light, despite interest from Arsenal, Everton and Chelsea.

    Kone, 27, joined Sunderland from Lorient back in January, and he repaid Sam Allardyce's faith in him with a series of outstanding performances during the club's fight against relegation.

    Lamine Kone scores the second goal for Sunderland against Everton

    The Ivory Coast international helped stabilise a porous Sunderland defence, and impressed with his uncompromising nature, displaying great strength and aerial ability whilst being strong in the tackle too.

    Those performances appear to have triggered major interest in Kone's signature, and with Allardyce - the man who signed him - now gone to take the England job, teams are seemingly hoping to try and lure the centre back away from Wearside.

    The Daily Mail report that Everton are particularly keen to sign Kone given the major question marks over the future of defender John Stones, but they're not the only ones pursuing his signature.

    It's added that London rivals Arsenal and Chelsea have both looked at Kone with a view to making a move for him, but all three interested clubs could be left disappointed.

    The Daily Mail claim that Kone wants to stay at Sunderland and will ignore interest from any Premier League clubs, as he intends to start the new Premier League season with the Black Cats.

    Arsenal. Chelsea and Everton. Well if he does go, with those 3 in for him, it should be a ridiculous fee.

    If he wants to stay and Everton are playing hard ball over Stones and over valuing Stones by at least £30m, then they should be fed their own medicine, £35m because Mug Avenue is not just a one way street.

    Everton have offered £18million for Sunderland defender Lamine Kone as they prepare for John Stones' departure.

    Kone was travelling down to Merseyside in anticipation of a deal being agreed last night though the clubs remained apart.

    Sunderland have asked about players in return as part of negotiations with David Moyes reluctant to sanction a deal without lining up replacements himself.

    The 27-year-old Kone is deemed a priority signing for Everton manager Ronald Koeman who also wants to add Swansea's Ashley Williams.

    Their arrival would precipitate the sale of John Stones for £50m to Manchester City. Kone's sale would represent a massive £13m profit in seven months for Sunderland after they signed him from Lorient for £5m in January.
