Senderos set for Toffees

04 August 2009 07:22
Arsenal defender Philippe Senderos is reported to have agreed a switch to Everton. The Swiss centre-half has slipped down the pecking order at Emirates Stadium in recent times, and spent the 2008/09 season on loan at AC Milan. Despite the Gunners having offloaded Kolo Toure to Manchester City this summer, Arsene Wenger has moved to snap up Thomas Vermaelen from Ajax. That has ensured that first-team opportunities will prove hard to come by for Senderos this season. With only one year remaining on his current contract, the Swiss ace is therefore expected to be on his way before the transfer window slams shut. A move to Goodison Park appears to be on the cards, with a deal believed to already be in place. The Swiss Football Federation have claimed on their official website that the 24-year-old has agreed a move to the Toffees. They claim Senderos is keen on a switch to Merseyside as he eyes a place at next summer's World Cup.
