Premier League side Everton are plotting a €30m swoop for Brazil international forward Everton Soares, according to a report from Gazeta Esportiva.
The report states that Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti has already rung and personally spoken directly to the left-winger, who can also operate up front and on the right-wing.
In the 2019 season, the Gremio star scored 11 times in the Brazilian Serie A, whilst also providing five assists after a total of 2,276 minutes of league action.

Everton, more commonly known as Cebolinha, was the star man for Brazil in the Copa America in the absence of Neymar.
I feel that signing him would definitely be a boost for the Toffees because as quoted on Goal, he’s a talent with ‘great things’ awaiting him in the future.
However, the only concern I have is that to accommodate for Cebolinha, Richarlison’s position may need to be slightly adapted because they are both primarily left-wingers.
Richarlison has featured as the main striker on many occasions in his career, even though he’s been a lot more dangerous on the flank.
If Ancelotti secures the signing for €30m, then I feel he’ll have more than enough options attacking wise to help Everton climb up the table.
