Liverpool legend wants defender to join Everton over Manchester United

Jamie Carragher has suggested that Michael Keane should sign for Everton during the summer.

After a series of fine performances this season, Keane has established himself as one of the best defenders in the Premier League and will likely be headed to a new club during the summer.

Carragher said, “There’s talk of Everton going for him. I think that’d be perfect. If he goes somewhere for £15m to £20m, he’s the big signing. Yes, you want to win trophies but the main thing is to play week in, week out.”

The England international has reportedly become a priority target of Everton though Manchester United are also interested. There is no doubt that Keane would be a good fit for the Toffees.

However the lure of moving back to his boyhood Manchester United may also be more appealing. United could also be able to offer him a better deal which will include regular playing time.
