The Portuguese press once again has updates on Everton’s chase for the Benfica winger Andre Carrillo today.
This time, it’s newspaper A Bola who comes up with a story saying that although the Toffees are keen on the player, they won’t go very far to get him.
The outlet claims that Carrillo isn’t seen as a ‘priority investment’ for Everton, meaning that an offer wouldn’t meet Benfica’s expectations.
It’s said that the most likely deal would be a loan with an option to buy, and Everton will go for that just like Watford did to get the player last season.
After playing for Peru at the World Cup, Carrillo has just started his holidays. But the player and Benfica are working to find him a new destination for next season, as a stay in Lisbon is seen as plan b.Reports from this week have claimed that the Eagles would demand at least €15m for his sale, which is the amount of the buying option Watford had over him.
