RB Leipzig contact Everton and enquire about Thierno Barry | OneFootball

Paul Joyce, football journalist for The Times,  has reported that RB Leipzig have contacted Everton to enquire about Thierno Barry and his availability for a move to the continent.

Barry has rarely impressed in his short time with Everton, although he does have eight goals to his name — and incredibly he played in all 38 of Everton's Premier League games, starting 21.

But he will be most remembered for a spectacular bust-up of his own creation when he gave tickets in the Everton section at the Emirates to his Arsenal-supporting friends.

Sky Sports News understands Everton are keen to upgrade their forward department, and have explored a loan deal for out-of-favour Liam Delap from Chelsea.

Sorry, David Moyes can't come to the phone right now -- he's on TalkSport chatting shite with Jim White.

If it's regarding Thierno Barry, the answer is Yes! Yes!! Yes!!!

Bit of good news at last...

Well, that's if they buy him.

I'll drive him there myself.

Would love to get our money back, but I'll bet they'll offer less money and lower salary, and he'll want compensation?

This is dream news!! He is by far the single worst player I have ever seen play for us. Fingers crossed on this one!!
