# Everton: Fans laud Matheus Nunes transfer update

**Many Everton fans have been left to laud a transfer update involving Matheus Nunes.**

As per [Record](https://www.record.pt/futebol/futebol-nacional/liga-nos/sporting/detalhe/matheus-nunes-perto-do-everton), the Brazilian is very close to signing for the Goodison Park faithful, and is set to join the Merseyside club in the coming days along with Nuno Espirito Santo.

Playing in no fewer than in 31 Liga NOS matches in the 2020/21 season, scoring three goals and making a further two assists ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/matheus-nunes/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/601883/plus/0?saison=2020&verein=&liga=&wettbewerb=PO1&pos=&trainer_id=)), Nunes was a key player in Sporting Lisbon’s title triumph, and his winning mentality would be a valuable asset to have both off of the pitch as well as on it.

At just 22 years of age as well, he certainly has a lot of potential, and would give the Toffees another handy option in the centre of midfield.
