Everton reportedly set to sign talented South American from Spanish club

Nicolas Gaitain is reportedly set to move to the Premier League this month with Everton said to be interested in signing him.

Gaitain has struggled to earn regular game time with Atletico Madrid this season as he has gone on to make just 12 appearances and he is concerned that he could miss out on a place in the world cup.

It now appears that the 29-year old is set to move to England with the likes of the Toffees, Watford, West Ham and Southampton all interested in signing him.

Atletico are willing to let Gaitain move permanently and are demanding around £18 million.

Everton and Southampton are looking to sign him permanently while Watford and West Ham are keen on a loan deal.

Both Gaitain and Atletico are waiting for a Premier League club to come in with an offer before they decide upon what they will do next.
