Everton possible landing spot for £50m Brazilian sensation - report

Everton are a possible future landing spot for Atletico Mineiro midfielder Alisson Santana, according to the Daily Mail.

The news outlet suggested [19 November] that the Toffees could potentially move for the 19-year-old in the coming months, with Arsenal, Fulham and Newcastle United also mentioned.

Under Gabriel Milito, the Brazilian has been a critical player for the Roosters, and they could demand around £50 million to part ways with him.

Everton should be on lookout for Alisson Santana

Santana has been influential at Atletico Mineiro this year, making 33 appearances in all competitions, scoring two goals and providing one assist.

The midfielder is a versatile outlet for his team, and while Milito has primarily played the youngster on the right wing, he can also play in the middle of the park or up top.

Over time, with appropriate development, the 19-year-old has the potential to become a part of the Toffees’ exciting crop of up-and-comers.

Everton have Braiden Graham in their ranks, who was hailed as one of the best talents in the Premier League by The Guardian [14 October].

Most recently, Anthony Gordon was one of the biggest prospects to come out of the club’s academy, with the Blues star moving to Newcastle United in January 2023.

In the past, the likes of Wayne Rooney and Leon Osman have showcased the success of Finch Farm.

Players like Jarrad Branthwaite highlight the importance of trusting youth, and the Toffees could replicate with him what they did with John Stones, whose transfer to Manchester City was some of the finest business by the club.

In other Everton news, Keith Hackett has hit out at the controversial penalty decision for Everton Women.
