Supporters of Everton have reacted to the latest news on the club’s reported interest in signing Allan from Napoli.

According to the Daily Star, Napoli have slapped a £42-million price tag on their Brazilian midfielder (via Toffee TV), which had many desperate for the club to swerve the asking price.

Should Everton pay £42 million to sign Allan from Napoli?

Yes, would be a class signing

No, that would be too much

For the Serie A club, the 29-year-old midfielder has featured in 20 games in all competitions, during which he has scored once and assisted once (as per Transfermarkt).

While some supporters were not keen on the asking price, a 6.82/10 average rating for the season so far (per WhoScored) was enough to convince other fans that the price was worth it.

What do we think?

While £42 million is a lot for a 29-year-old, when you consider that the Toffees paid £27 million to sign Cenk Tosun (as per BBC) and £45 million for Gylfi Sigurdsson (as per BBC), then it looks a little more plausible.

When also considering that the Brazilian has a market value of £45 million (per Transfermarkt), then it could be a good deal for the Merseyside club.
