# Everton: Paul Brown says Toffees could sign Lucas Moura

**Journalist Paul Brown has said that [Everton](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/everton-fc-news/) could now sign Lucas Moura this summer.**

### The Lowdown: Richarlison swap deal?

As per [The Telegraph](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2022/06/13/peter-kenyon-fronting-consortium-try-buy-everton/), Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Richarlison from the Toffees and are prepared to offer both Harry Winks and Moura as part of a potential swap deal for the 25-year-old.

The arrivals of Rodrigo Bentancur and Dejan Kulusevski from Juventus in the January transfer window pushed the aforementioned Spurs players down the pecking order in terms of [minutes played](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tottenham-hotspur/leistungsdaten/verein/148) last season, so they do not seem to be in Antonio Conte’s long-term plans.

### The Latest: Moura transfer speculation

Speaking to [GIVEMESPORT](https://www.givemesport.com/88022537-everton-18m-star-with-great-quality-has-come-up-in-talks-at-goodison-park), Brown has said that Moura has ‘come up in talks’ at Goodison Park, but there is ‘less of a push’ to sign him over Winks.

The reporter said of Eerton’s interest in the duo: *“They certainly do like Winks, while Lucas Moura has come up in talks, but there’s less of a push for Everton to sign him and there’s also the Dele Alli situation with Everton still owing Spurs money for him.”*

### The Verdict: Sign Moura over Winks

If Everton could sign only one of the players mentioned, they should go for Moura over Winks.

They already have a plethora of central midfield options, whereas Anwar El Ghazi has returned to Aston Villa from his loan spell, leaving Andros Townsend as the only recognised senior right winger ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fc-everton/startseite/verein/29)).

Moura should certainly add quality from the flanks, having scored 38 goals and supplied a further 27 assists over the course of his Spurs career ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/lucas-moura/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/77100/plus/0?saison=&verein=148&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=)).

Also, at 29 years of age, the Toffees could take advantage of a player who is currently in the peak of his career and has plenty of [big-game experience](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/lucas-moura/detaillierteleistungsdaten/spieler/77100) from his time with Paris Saint-Germain and Tottenham.
