Yannick Bolasie could be on his way out of Everton this summer after his agent revealed he’s “received good offers” from clubs and is hoping to get even better ones on the table in the coming weeks.
The 30-year-old is available for sale after falling down the pecking order at Goodison Park, but he’s struggled to find suitors due to inconsistent form and lofty wage demands.
Jwtiar Khalid Rahman says Bolasie has a number of options already but won’t rush on making a decision as they’re waiting on other clubs entering the race for his signature.
He told Record via Sport Witness: “We’re linked to Sporting until June. We’ve received good offers. Time will bring us better ones”. Bolasie joined the Portuguese outfit on a season-long loan last summer and has gone on to make 25 appearances in all competitions, scoring two goals and making five assists.
Sporting have the option to sign the DR Congo international permanently but look unlikely to do so as Bolasie has struggled for form and playing time in 2020 – seven appearances, one assist. He won’t have a future back at Everton either, scoring just two goals in 32 games, but there’s no word from Rahman on which clubs are interested.
The Toffees paid £26m for Bolasie in 2016 and agreed a five-year deal worth £3.9m-a-year/£75k-a-week. With his last Everton appearance coming all the way back in May 2018, he won’t be missed.
