Everton star Yerry Mina's agent offers firm response on transfer rumours as Fenerbahce linked

Everton star Yerry Mina's agent has offered a firm response to rumours the defender could already be on his way out of Goodison Park.

The Colombia international made a big-money move to Merseyside last summer from Barcelona after a long transfer saga, but saw his term disrupted by a number of injuries.

The 24-year-old was forced to wait until November for his Premier League debut off the bench against Brighton, and only went on to make another 12 appearances in the competition.

And that has led to speculation the defender could already be eyeing up a move this summer.

Reports in Turkey have suggested Fenerbahce are interested in taking Mina on loan after missing out on his permanent signature last summer.

However, the Blues star's agent and uncle has now offered a firm response to those reports.

"Yerry will certainly not leave Everton," Jair Mina told Turkish broadcaster aSPOR.

“This type of transfer news is purely gossip.

“Mina owes Everton and has to prove himself. He will not leave Everton.”
