Everton to battle Premier League clubs for Porto forward

Porto winger Yacine Brahimi is waiting for an English club to try to sign him this summer, with the Algerian forward desperate to play in the Premier League.

Everton were linked with a move for Brahimi last summer, but nothing came to fruition. Portuguese outlet O Jogo report that the Toffees are once again interested in doing a deal for the 28-year old, with Newcastle United and Wolves also showing an interest.

Roma are also believed to be interested, but Brahimi wants a move to the Premier League, giving English clubs the advantage. Also, Brahimi reportedly did not get on well with former Porto head coach and current Wolves boss Nuno Espírito Santo, effectively limiting their chances.

Porto are looking to do business with an English club but would want an offer of around €30million for their star forward, who scored 11 goals and assisted nine for the Dragons last season.
