Everton will compete with Bologna, Galatasaray, and Nottingham Forest to sign 27-year-old Argentine international Gonzalo Montiel from Sevilla.
According to a report by Spanish outlet Estadio Deportivo, Gonzalo Montiel is the subject of interest from Everton. The Sevilla full-back will likely leave the Andalusian club in the January transfer window. However, the Merseyside club will face stiff competition from Bologna, Galatasaray, and Nottingham Forest for the 27-year-old 2022 FIFA World Cup winner.
Gonzalo Montiel and his rollercoaster of a career
Gonzalo Montiel has struggled to find a stable footing in the last few seasons. The South American full-back was on top of the world two years ago after playing his part in Argentina’s triumphant campaign at the 2022 FIFA World Cup. However, he has blown hot and cold at the club level.
The 27-year-old spent the 2023/24 season on loan at Nottingham Forest, where he was solid for much of the campaign. However, Montiel’s stock has plummeted this term, managing only 101 minutes of game time across four appearances in all competitions thus far for Sevilla.
Nevertheless, the Argentine full-back’s stock in the market remains high, with well-known clubs like Bologna and Galatasaray vying for his signature. However, Montiel might soon return to the Premier League, with Everton among his prospective suitors heading into the January transfer window.
Premier League return on the horizon?
Everton’s interest in Gonzalo Montiel is understandable. While Sean Dyche has three right-backs in his squad, Seamus Coleman and Ashley Young are in the twilight of their careers. In addition, Nathan Patterson has struggled with persistent fitness issues throughout his stint with the Merseyside club. So, Everton should invest in a more dependable right-back next year.
Montiel has thus emerged as a target for Everton, with the Toffees one of several Premier League clubs showing interest in him this year. The summer transfer window witnessed links with Fulham and Aston Villa. Meanwhile, Everton will face stiff competition from Nottingham Forest for the Argentine international.
It is unclear if the 2022 FIFA World Cup winner is open to joining Everton, considering the Toffees are in the relegation battle. Bologna and Galatasaray might be more attractive destinations for the 27-year-old full-back. So, it will be interesting to see where the Sevilla outcast lands in the January transfer window.
