Rennes are on the verge of signing Paris Saint-Germain forward Arnaud Kalimuendo for €25 million, so the French club needs to find a club for Guirassy.

The Ligue 1 outfit could conclude a deal to send the 26-year-old forward to Everton on loan after they have done their own business with PSG.

Guirassy scored nine goals in seven Ligue 1 starts last season. The forward found the back of the net 10 times and provided one assist in 19 Ligue 1 starts for Rennes in 2020-21.
