At FC Barcelona they want to release Jean-Clair Todibo. Everton were best placed to take the defender... until Thiago Silva came on. According to 'Sport', the team led by Carlo Ancelotti would bet heavily on the Brazilian from PSG, who would arrive at zero cost. And that could frustrate Barcelona's plans.

In the Camp Nou they had already found Todibo's place. Barça negotiated his transfer with Everton. So much so that, at the end of April, his departure to the Premier League was all but confirmed.

But things have changed. Everton has continued to look in the market these months and has met the option of Thiago Silva.

The experienced PSG defender ends his contract on 30 June. That means he'll be going at zero cost to the club of his choice. And the toffees think he could fit into Ancelotti's plans...

At the moment, Thiago Silva has not decided what to do with his future. Several teams have sent him their proposals, now he must decide.

If he opts for Everton, that would mean the English would forget about Todibo, and cause Barcelona some trouble.
