Report claims Everton interested in move for Yannick Carrasco

Belgian winger Yannick Carrasco is reportedly set to return to Europe this January, and Everton could be one of the teams interested in a move.

Arena Napoli report that Carrasco is set to demand a return to Europe, with the winger keen on playing football “that matters” again after a spell in China.

The player’s ‘intermediaries’ are trying to get him a move back to Europe, with several teams reportedly interested in signing him.

Carrasco played for Atletico Madrid before switching to China, and is a current Belgian international.

Napoli, AC Milan and Everton are reportedly all interested in a switch for Carrasco, and he could be available for  €15-20m.

However, the player’s salary could be a big issue for Everton.

Read Everton’s verdict

Carrasco could be a great signing for Everton, especially if they’re able to get a good deal for him.

€15 million for a player with the quality and ability of Carrasco is a steal, but again the player’s wages could be an issue.

Carrasco is on a fair wage in China, and would likely still want a big deal in Europe, especially as he would have to take a pay cut for the deal.
