Idrissa Gueye - now gone

[kippaxvilla2]

Fee agreed apparently with Lille £9m. Who is he?  Any good?

Dave - title edited now he's officially Everton's.

[LukeJames]

Cracking player.... Thought he'd joined Marseille a couple of days ago?

[wozwebs]

Guy on Twitter who covers French football said he's 'too good for Villa' and should be aiming higher. Presume that means he's good? Sky and PA covering story

[wozwebs]

£9m too. Spending the Benteke money already or new owners?

[aj2k77]

I've never seen him play but apparently a defensive midfielder. One of Westwood or Sanchez to be offed?

[Matt Collins]

He's apparently more of a box to box player, so more of a replacement for cleverley (or delph?)

ITSOTP

[villadelph]

Don't believe it until I see him holding up the shirt.

£9m too. Spending the Benteke money already or new owners?

Maybe it's a move to prove to Benteke our newfound ambition and keep him on board?

[eamonn]

How do you pronounce his name, gay?

[Toronto Villa]

On the obligatory YouTube clips he has GANA on the back of his shirt.

[Matt Collins]

He's good but I prefer his brother Marvin

Or neither.

[Smirker]

Spending the Cleverley money.

Never heard of him but I'm quite excited by this.

[Ozzjim]

Seems very highly thought of and fits the Cleverley replacement mould. A position we need a good quality player in alongside Delph. Let's hope he signs.

[villadelph]

Saw it in the Brum Mail; also cite Sky as they seem to think he'll be in this week for a medical.

I heard about this earlier through the grapevine.
