AliousTRANSFER BUZZ: MULTIPLE TOP CLUBS EYEING EVERTON’S AMADOU ONANA
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS:
Amadou Onana has emerged as a standout performer for Belgium in Euro 2024, despite the team’s overall struggles.
The Everton midfielder has impressed with his ball-winning abilities, recovering 18 balls and winning 70% of his duels in the group stage.
His passing accuracy has also been remarkable, completing 92% of his attempts (159 out of 173).
MARKET DYNAMICS:
French outlet Foot Mercato reports that Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) is now joining the race for Onana, alongside Arsenal, Barcelona, and Bayern Munich. PSG views Onana as an ideal midfield reinforcement.
Everton’s financial situation may necessitate a sale, with Onana potentially available for €55-60 million – significantly less than alternatives like Benfica’s Joao Neves, who is priced at €100 million.
BACKGROUND:
Interest in Onana isn’t new.
Barcelona made initial inquiries during the winter transfer window but couldn’t pursue due to financial constraints.
Manchester United has also been monitoring Onana for months but is currently prioritizing Manuel Ugarte, potentially leaving an opening for other interested clubs.
PLAYER PROFILE:
Onana’s versatility as both a defensive and more advanced midfielder, combined with his physical attributes and technical skills, makes him an attractive prospect for top clubs.
His performance in Belgium’s upcoming round of 16 match against France could further enhance his reputation and transfer value.
