Santos Laguna goalkeeper Carlos Acevedo has responded to the rumours which linked him to a move to Everton.
Speaking to the Mexican media this week, the 24-year-old claimed he still wasn’t aware about the reported interest from the Toffees in signing him this summer.
“No, the truth is that I’ve been finding out. I’ve had no information about that, I’m focused on my club Santos,” said Acevedo (via Record).
“God, the future and work will say what is coming in the medium and long term”.
Well, many Everton fans who are reading this story are probably wondering who Carlos Acevedo is and when exactly their club were linked with him in the first place.
Big outlets such as Record say the rumour is coming from England, even though we couldn’t find anything on it.
The only people on Twitter commenting on this chase have credited a page which says the story came from ESPN, although nothing could be found with them either.
So journalist Martín del Palacio Langer soon took to Twitter to comment on the situation, and claimed there’s no interest from Everton.
He labels it as a ‘fake’ story, and wonders where it really came from.
