Everton ready to swoop for impressive Porto attacker this summer

Everton are interested in signing Moussa Marega from Porto this summer, according to reports in Portugal.

The Toffees are said to still be on the lookout for added attacking inspiration ahead of next season and if A Bola, as cited by the Liverpool Echo, are to be believed, Marega is a target for the club.

Everton have reportedly scouted Porto on a number of occasions this season, as has been evidenced by the links with the club’s defender Iván Marcano, but perhaps they have also been eyeing Marega.

The 26-year-old, who is renowned to be a more physical striker than technical one, has been in decent form for Porto this season. Malian international Marega has found the net on 20 occasions from only 24 appearances in Liga NOS this term.

However, a deal for Marega would undoubtedly be a costly one for the Toffees. It’s been claimed that the powerful forward’s release clause is set in the region of £40m.
