Everton 'reevaluating' move for Reinier Jesus

According to Globo Esporte, Everton are considering the valuation of the talented teenager following reports they were set to sign him for €40m from Flamengo in January when he turns 18 and would be eligible for international transfer.

The report suggests that Everton are trying to get the final fee lowered, a possibility that strengthens as the 17-year-old's contract gets closer to its December 2020 expiration.

However, a rumour has surfaced today that Arsenal could be lining up an offer in the coming weeks for a player who is widely regarded as Brazil's next sensation.

Everton would be an attractive destination for Reinier in England because of the presence in the Toffees' squad of his compatriots Richarlison and Bernard, not to mention the Portuguese-speaking management duo of Marco Silva and Luis Boa Morte.
