Sampdoria are said to have sealed a deal with Cesena for striker Gregoire Defrel, who was wanted by Everton.

Sky Sport Italia maintain there is an agreement for Samp to pay €6.5m.

However, first the Blucerchiati must sell either Eder or Stefano Okaka to make room.

The 24-year-old French forward scored nine Serie A goals and provided six assists in 34 games, but was unable to stop their relegation.

He was co-owned between Cesena and Parma, but the Ducali’s bankruptcy meant the entirety of his contract automatically went to the other club.

In a show of great solidarity, Cesena handed over €51,000 anyway to help those people left unemployed by the collapse of Parma.
