Everton lead chase for 'England-bound' Brahimi

The Blues' interest in Brahimi was first reported by Sky Sports earlier this week but A Bola's suggestion is the first since then. They claim that Everton have offered €30m for the Algerian international but that Porto are demanding upwards of €40m to cover the fact that they only own half of the player's rights.

Assuming the interest from messers Koeman and Walsh is real and the fee isn't a stumbling block, Everton would seem to be in pole position for the 26-year-old. Arsenal were believed to be interested but their double swoop for Lucas Perez and Shkodran Mustafi will likely preclude another big-money transfer to the Emirates this summer.
