Everton midfielder Andre Gomes is attracting interest from Benfica, according to reports, as the Portuguese club prepare to spend following the impending transfer of Darwin Nunez to Liverpool.
The ECHO has reported that Liverpool are on the verge of completing the £85m signing of the Benfica star who netted 34 goals in 41 appearances across the 2021/22 campaign. Nunez has emerged as one of the most sought-after forwards in Europe and his exploits last season included six Champions league goals and two against the Anfield at the quarter-final stage.
And ironically, Everton could benefit from the club record acquisition of their Merseyside rivals. As Benfica look to spend some of the incoming cash, they want to sign the Blues midfielder, according to The Sunday Mirror.
