Everton are reportedly showing interest in signing Benfica’s Vangelis Pavlidis in the summer transfer window. According to reports, the Premier League side is among several English clubs vying for the Greek forward’s signature.
Pavlidis has a €100m (£85m) release clause in his current deal, and Benfica are keen to keep him. The player has had an impressive season in the Portuguese top flight, outscoring all Everton strikers.
Everton’s interest in Pavlidis comes as they look to strengthen their squad, particularly in attack. The club has struggled with injuries and inconsistency up top, and manager David Moyes may look to add firepower to the team.
However, signing Pavlidis could be a challenging task given his release clause. Everton may lose Dominic Calvert-Lewin despite their best efforts to secure a new contract, and the club will need to make improvements to their squad.
Pavlidis’s potential arrival would be an ambitious move for Everton, but it remains to be seen whether the club can meet the player’s price tag. The Toffees are also eyeing other targets, including Liam Delap, who is expected to be in high demand this summer.
