Everton’s Kevin Mirallas is reportedly set for Fiorentina.
Kevin Mirallas is ‘getting close’ to joining Fiorentina on loan from Everton this month, according to Gianluca Di Marzio of Sky Sports Italia.
The Belgian winger has been heavily linked with a move to the Italian outfit in recent days after he and a number of Everton team-mates were made to train with the reserves.
And it looks like a switch to Florence is on the cards for the 30-year-old, who had a mixed half-season loan with Olympiacos last term.
Gianluca Di Marzio has reported that Everton will pocket a loan fee of around £440,000 for Mirallas, who will cost the Serie A outfit approximately £6.2 million if they want to sign him outright next summer.
The writing has been on the wall for the talented winger at Goodison Park for quite some time, having managed only five Premier League appearances last season.
Mirallas, who earns £70,000 per week [Silly Season], has plenty of ability but no Toffees boss since Roberto Martinez has been able to utilise it on a consistent basis.
Plus, Marco Silva’s addition of Richarlison for £50 million, coupled with Theo Walcott’s presence on Merseyside, would make it ever so difficult for him to play regularly this season.
The Toffees kick off their Premier League season on Saturday by visiting newly-promoted Wolves.
