Mirallas has reportedly agreed to join Fiorentina on loan from Everton.

Sky Italy journalist Gianluca Di Marzio has reported on his official website that Everton could receive nearly £7million after Kevin Mirallas completed a loan move to Serie A side Fiorentina.

Mirallas, 30, was loaned out to Olympiakos for the second half of last season after being ostracised by Ronald Koeman and then Sam Allardyce. Just two goals in the Greek Super League saw him endure a poor loan spell.

The return of Ademola Lookman from RB Leipzig after an impressive spell in the Bundesliga, as well as the signing of Richarlison, has pushed Belgium international Mirallas even further down the pecking order.

Now, Everton could be set to rake in £6.7million for the winger, after Fiorentina agreed a loan-to-buy option which sees the Italians pay £450,000 up front and a permanent clause at the end of the loan worth £6.25m.

BBC Sport claimed back in 2012 that Everton signed Mirallas from Olympiakos for just £6million, and 186 league and cup appearances later, the Merseyside club could be set to make a profit on Mirallas.

Mirallas travelled to Fiorentina on Monday night and is set to undergo a medical before linking up with his teammates on their tour of the Netherlands.
