Portuguese media outlet O’jogo reports that Sanusi is considered as a good signing at the Meseryside as manager Frank Lampard seeks to improve the side that escaped relegation only on the last day of the season.

The Dragao will be loathe to letting the Nigerian leave the club with his powerful play not just in defence but in attacking play helping in no small means to nick wins.

Aside Everton, Brighton and Hoves who could lose Marc Cucurela to Manchester City and Crystal Palace are also interested in the services of the left back.

The outrageous release clause could however hamper any such deal from happening unless the structure of payment is made flexible for the buying club.
