Everton target Zivkovic pursued by Shakhtar Donetsk

Everton target Zivkovic pursued by Shakhtar Donetsk

Shakhtar Donetsk are interested in signing reported Everton target Andrija Živković, according to reports.

The Toffees were linked with a move for the Benfica winger back in November, with Marco Silva said to be interested in bringing in more attacking options once the January transfer window opens.

According to Record, as translated by Sport Witness, Živković is wanted by more than one Portuguese manager in January, with Shakhtar’s Paulo Fonseca said to be keen on doing a deal for the 22-year old.

According to Record’s report, Benfica will refuse to sell Živković for less than €30million, with the Serbia international having managed to establish himself this season, meaning the club aren’t keen on seeing him depart.

Fonseca is said to be as much an admirer of Živković’s talents as Silva, and both managers could be forced to fight for their man once the window opens.

Živković is reportedly keen on a move to the Premier League, having seen his name linked with a move to England in the past few years, and Everton will need to move with haste if they do intend on tempting the winger to move to Goodison Park.
