Everton want Ben Arfa

Everton are chasing Lyon's starlet Hatem Ben Arfa. On October 26, 2007, it was reported that Arsenal F.C. manager Arsène Wenger planned to make a bid of £ 40,000,000 to sign him and Karim Benzema, who are extensively regarded as two of the most talented future football stars in Europe, however, Everton are set to trump this offer with an enormous £15m offer for Ben Arfa.

Everton are reportedly very interested in the French international striker of Tunisian descent, as he has continued to be impressive in Ligue 1 this year.

Ben Arfa is valued at £15m, but Everton are keen to add the attacking midfielder to their squad as they attempt to bolster their Champions League ambitions for the coming seasons.

Ben Arfa already has a few caps for France, and is very highly regarded in his homeland.
