Report: Will Everton arrive at AC Milan
Rumors about AC Milan making a 40-million offer for Everton Soares dominated the web but will the Rossoneri sign the Brazilian star?
MILAN TRANSFER NEWS – The biggest news of the day was not the official presentation of coach Marco Giampaolo, neither the announcement of Rade Krunic, but rather a rumored bid of 40 million euros for Brazil star Everton Soares.
It has been a fantastic season for the 23-year-old left winger. The Gremio star established himself as one of the best players in the Brazilian league the pas year and won the Copa America trophy with the national team. Everton was also named the competition’s top scorer and the MVP of the final against Peru.
Everton, nicknamed Cebolinha after the famous cartoon character, was courted for a long time by Leonardo. The former AC Milan sporting director was convinced by the talent of the promising Brazilian and had agreed a 35 million euros fee with Gremio. However, with Leonardo’s departure, AC Milan’s transfer targets changed.
The arrival of new coach Marco Giampaolo on the bench was the final factor. Giampaolo prefers a 4-3-1-2 game system without wingers so no signings in this positions are not required. It would have been nice to see him grace San Siro but Everton Soares to AC Milan is definitely off.
