Everton reportedly want to bring Ajax’s Champions League star Neres to the Premier League though face competition from Ligue 1 and Serie A giants.
David Neres could choose Everton over European giants AC Milan and Paris Saint-Germain this summer, according to UOL Esporte.
Neres has long been seen as one of the most exciting young talents to emerge out of South America in recent years but he has really taken his reputation to the next level in 2019.
The Ajax forward scored his 12th goal of the season with a glorious curling effort in Wednesday’s 1-1 Champions League quarter-final draw against Juventus, just weeks after netting in the famous 4-1 away win at Real Madrid.
As a result, interest is rising in another of Ajax’s top talents with PSG launching an enquiry while AC Milan have made contact.
UOL, however, points out that Neres could chose Everton over the San Siro or the Parc des Princes as his preference is to play in the Premier League. Ajax are expected to demand £38 million for the one-time Sao Paulo wonderkid.
Interestingly, Neres shares an agent with Everton’s other Brazilian stars Richarlison and Bernard. But The Toffees could face competition form Merseyside rivals Liverpool, who have been linked via Le10 Sport.
