Idrissa Gueye has slowly but steadily established himself as one of the more underappreciated holding midfielders in the Premier League and led the way for tackles made in the entire division in the 2016/2017 season.

The 29-year-old emerged as a late surprise target for PSG during the winter window, with Everton refusing to entertain offers for him despite repeated inquests by the Ligue 1 side, leading Gueye to submit a transfer request in a bid to force through the move.

Everton were however determined in their resolve not to let the Senegalese international go and the result was that Gueye still finds himself at Merseyside for at least another six months.

It is not every time that an offer from one of the biggest clubs in the world comes by for a player, with titles guaranteed to be won and his wages sure to be increased and with Gueye missing this opportunity, it might be one which does not come around again in his career.
