Deal done: Everton to sign Manchester United target from Barcelona
Mina, who had a solid World Cup with Colombia, in which he found the net three times, was a target of Manchester United, as well as Inter Milan in Serie A. However, the deal to bring him to Everton has been orchestrated by new director of football Marcel Brands – and new head coach Marco Silva.
The details, pending total agreement, are a transfer fee of €32 million, with the deal set to tie Mina to the Merseyside club until 2023.
Mina was not in the plans of Barcelona and therefore sought a move away, to ensure that he got the game-time that he wanted in the upcoming season.
Mina impressed many at the World Cup, demonstrating a strength, determination, consistency and goal-scoring ability that makes him a valuable asset for Everton in the upcoming season.
