Everton have once again been tipped to bring Yacine Brahimi to the Premier League, although Serie A duo Lazio and AC Milan are also being linked.
Yacine Brahimi’s future looks increasingly likely to lie away from FC Porto.
Try as they might, the reigning Primeira Liga champions have been unable to tie the Algerian international down to a new contract with his current deal set to expire at the end of this season.
According to Tuttomercatoweb, the vultures are circling. Lazio and AC Milan are both interested in Brahimi, a skilful and direct winger renowned for his ability to leave opposition full-backs for dead.
The former Granada attacker, who was named the African Footballer of the Year in 2014, scored 12 goals in all competitions last season as Porto won the Portuguese league title for the first time in five years, ending Benfica’s domestic stranglehold.
And Tuttomercatoweb reports that Everton could be tempted to renew their interest in the 28-year-old Brahimi next month, perhaps encouraged by the fact that he could be available on a cut-price deal.
This is far from the first time Everton have been linked with Brahimi. According to the Mirror, the Paris-born winger rejected a £33.6 million move to Goodison Park two years ago because he wanted to play Champions League football.
So with the Toffees in the bottom half of the Premier League, it remains to be seen whether Brahimi could be lured to Merseyside.
