Everton are being linked to Gabriel Barbosa from Inter Milan, and not for the first time.
Tutto Mercato Web brings a story today claiming the Toffees are interested in getting the Brazilian striker on a loan with an option to buy, and have already ‘knocked on the door’ of the Nerazzurri about it.
Inter Milan, on the other hand, have other plans.
They’re not really interested in keeping him once he returns from his loan at Santos, but they would rather sell him on a permanent basis instead of loaning him out again.
Inter paid €30m to sign him two years ago, and now they’re said to be demanding half of that price. So the Toffees would have to spend around €15m on the Brazilian.
The Goodison Park side are the only club mentioned in the story, although Crystal Palace have also been linked to the player in the past few weeks.
With two fixtures to go, Gabigol is now finishing the Brazilian League as the top scorer with 17 goals. He’s scored 26 for Santos this season.
