Everton and Fulham will reportedly compete with Aston Villa in the race to sign 25-year-old Mozambican wide player Geny Catamo from Sporting CP this summer.
According to a report by Record, as relayed by Sport Witness, Everton and Fulham are interested in Geny Catamo. The Sporting CP wide player has also been a target for Aston Villa for a long time. Meanwhile, the 25-year-old has a release clause worth €60 million in his contract with the Portuguese outfit, although a cut-price deal may be possible for €20 million.
How has Geny Catamo fared at Sporting CP?
Geny Catamo has made considerable progress since breaking into the first-team squad at Sporting CP. The Maputo native spent most of his formative years in Mozambique but turned professional in Portugal. However, the player had to wait until the 2023/24 season to enjoy his breakthrough at the Portuguese club.
The 25-year-old has been solid in the 2025/26 season thus far, scoring seven goals and providing four assists in 29 appearances across all competitions. Meanwhile, Catamo’s progress at the Portuguese club has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several well-known clubs. Aston Villa, Everton, and Fulham are among the prospective suitors vying for the Mozambican international’s signature in the summer transfer window.
Premier League move on the horizon?
Fulham will dip into the market for a wide attacker in the summer transfer window. While the West London club signed Oscar Bobb from Manchester City a few weeks ago, Harry Wilson’s long-term future is uncertain amid his links with Everton and other Premier League clubs. So, Catamo has emerged as a viable target for Fulham.
Meanwhile, Geny Catamo has been on Aston Villa’s radar for a long time. The continued interest is understandable, as the Villans are eager to add more quality to their offensive unit amid uncertainties surrounding Leon Bailey’s long-term future. Additionally, Jadon Sancho may not complete a permanent move to Aston Villa after his loan spell ends this summer.
As for Everton, the Toffees also hold a long-standing interest in Catamo. The Merseyside club will dip into the market for a wide attacker in the summer transfer window if Jack Grealish does not complete a permanent move after the culmination of his loan spell. Therefore, the Sporting CP player is a viable option worth considering for Everton.
Meanwhile, the 25-year-old Mozambican international has a release clause worth €60 million in his contract with the Portuguese outfit. However, a cut-price deal may be possible for €20 million, and it will be interesting to see if Catamo arrives in the Premier League in the coming months.
