Transfer rumours are starting to pick up as the transfer window is just over a month away and Everton are a club that are thought to be active in the market.
The Toffees could look to add a striker to their books in January as they have struggled to find the firepower from their main figures on the front line, with Richarlison having played a key role for the Goodison Park outfit.
And, according to a report in Italy, it appears as though Marco Silva’s side are already making enquiries about the possibility of bringing a player to the Premier League.
However, it would seem that the Serie A side are not keen on the proposition. Although they are keen to offload him, they would prefer to sell him and would want a price of around €15million.
The Verdict:
Barbosa, who is also known as ‘Gabigol’, has been linked with a couple of Premier League clubs recently and his time in Italy is likely to come to an end.
The striker, who has flopped during his time in Europe with Inter Milan and Benfica, has shown what he is capable with at Santos in his homeland, netting 17 goals in the Brazilian League and looks likely to finish as top scorer.
The 22-year-old could be a great addition for the Toffees and could fulfil their need for firepower, provided he replicates the form he has shown recently, although with over a month until the transfer window opens, anything could still happen.
Everton fans – thoughts?
