The Cameroon international is currently plying his trade at Sevilla but as he only signed a short-term permanent deal, the midfielder could possibly be purchased for a reasonable fee this January.
M’Bia spent last season on loan at QPR while they were in the Championship and it is reported that the player would like to return to English football.
M’Bia may still renew his contract with Sevilla but if he decides against it or is unable to then the Toffees could try again in the summer when he’ll be available for a free transfer.
