In what promises to become one of the most intense transfer sagas of the season, El Almería finds itself at the center of attention as they navigate negotiations for the future of their promising forward, El Bilal Touré. With multiple European clubs expressing interest in the player, it is the Everton that has made the highest bid thus far, surpassing the initial expectations of the Spanish team.
The negotiations between the two clubs have only just begun, but already they are at odds over the valuation of the player. While Everton’s offer currently stands at around €30 million, El Almería has set their asking price at £34 million, an amount that comes close to the player’s €40 million release clause. As both sides continue to thrash out a deal, it remains uncertain as to whether an agreement will be reached.
It is interesting to note that El Almería has adjusted its initial stance of considering offers above €25 million and is now seeking a figure closer to the player’s release clause. Despite this shift, Everton seems determined to secure the services of the young forward and continues to negotiate with the Spanish team.
