Following Everton failing to sign anyone in the January transfer window (not for lack of trying, mind), the transfer rumours about a move for a striker in the summer have continued.
Other than Beto, one of the names mentioned on a regular basis has been that of Dúvan Zapata, currently contracted at Atalanta in Serie A.
Il Giorno appear to bring the latest on the situation, recalling the recent mentions in the English press about Everton’s interest in the player, before adding a bit of their own information.
That’s where the Colombian comes in, as injuries, the explosion of Rasmus Højlund and his contractual situation mean his price ‘has collapsed drastically’ of late.
Everton, down their end, would be ‘ready to offer €15m’ for the striker, who turns 32 in the very near future and whose deal at Atalanta expires in 2024.
Therefore, this summer would be the ideal time for Atalanta to recoup some money by selling him, and it appears Sean Dyche wants to welcome him on Merseyside.
