Everton FC is on the verge of securing a permanent deal for Argentine attacking midfielder Charly Alcaraz. According to renowned Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, Alcaraz’s loan spell from Flamengo will become a permanent transfer once he makes five more appearances for the Toffees.
Alcaraz, 22, has already made a significant impact at Goodison Park, scoring one goal and recording one assist in eight appearances. His performances have helped Everton climb away from the Premier League relegation zone, and fans are eager to see him become a permanent member of the squad.
Romano claims that the obligation to buy clause in Alcaraz’s contract will be triggered once he reaches 13 appearances, with the transfer fee set at €18 million. This contradicts previous reports suggesting that Alcaraz needed to make nine starts for the clause to be activated.
Alcaraz has expressed his desire to settle down at Everton and make the loan deal permanent. In a recent interview, he stated that he would like to “settle down and make it longer” at the club, having had an unsettled few seasons with previous clubs Southampton, Juventus, and Flamengo.
Everton manager David Moyes will be hoping that Alcaraz can continue to make a significant impact on the pitch, helping the team to secure a safe position in the Premier League table. With the transfer fee set at €18 million, the Toffees will be eager to tie down the young Argentine to a long-term deal.
As Alcaraz edges closer to making his loan deal permanent, Everton fans will be excited to see what the future holds for the talented young midfielder. With his skill, determination, and desire to succeed, Alcaraz could become a key player for the Toffees in the years to come.
