Everton is considering a new first-team addition, with a potential £25 million move to the UK for a winger.

Jota, a former Celtic winger who is about to go, is reportedly drawing interest from Everton, Newcastle, and Brighton, according to HITC.

The Portuguese winger is anticipated to return to the UK this summer, according to a May 30 news report, because he isn’t getting enough playing time with Al-Ittihad.

He paid £25 million to join Celtic in the summer of last year, and in the January transfer window, he was also connected to Everton.

Jota might be acquired by Everton for a reasonable price.

Given that FFP and PSR laws have restricted the club’s funds in recent years, a low-cost deal for Jota might make sense.

The team would be considerably strengthened by the possibility of adding a player with Jota’s calibre without placing a heavy financial burden on the team.

Jota scored 27 goals in 34 league appearances for Celtic in 2022–2023—a stunning feat before to his departure for Al-Ittihad.

This demonstrates his ability to compete at a high level in a league with strong competition, which may easily translate to the Premier League.

Because of his versatility—he can play as a second striker or on the wing—the Toffees would have more offensive options from a tactical standpoint.

It is clear that more players are needed given the likelihood of players like Arnaut Danjuma and Jack Harrison leaving and the inconsistent play of others.
