Everton Eye Swoop for Atletico Mineiro Starlet Alisson Santana
Everton are reportedly considering a move for Atletico Mineiro midfielder Alisson Santana, according to the Daily Mail.
The 19-year-old Brazilian has caught the attention of several Premier League clubs, including Arsenal, Fulham, and Newcastle United, with a potential price tag of around £50 million.
Santana has been instrumental for Atletico Mineiro this season, making 33 appearances, scoring two goals, and providing one assist. His versatility has seen him feature on the right wing, in central midfield, and as a striker.
Under manager Gabriel Milito, Santana has developed into a key player for the Roosters, and his signature would be a significant coup for Everton.
The Toffees have a rich history of nurturing young talent, with Braiden Graham and Anthony Gordon being the latest success stories to emerge from Finch Farm. The likes of Wayne Rooney, Leon Osman, and John Stones have also showcased the club’s ability to develop and sell top-class players.
Everton’s interest in Santana highlights their commitment to investing in youth and potential. With the right development, Santana could join the ranks of Everton’s exciting young prospects.
However, securing Santana’s signature will require significant investment, and Everton will face stiff competition from rival Premier League clubs.
Will Everton be able to lure Alisson Santana to Goodison Park? Only time will tell.
