Toffees reject Lescott bid

Posted by Ahmed Ebrahim

Everton have confirmed they have rejected a bid from Premier League rivals Manchester City for defender Joleon Lescott.
City made a formal offer of £15million on Thursday for the England international in a week that they wrapped up the signing of Carlos Tevez.
Mark Hughes wants the former Wolves central defender, who can also operate at left-back, to partner John Terry at the heart of what would be a new-look defence.
However, it seems Hughes' dream partnership may not have a happy ending with Everton and Chelsea remaining firm in their desire to keep their star defenders.
