Everton’s Yannick Bolasie never achieved the heights that were anticipated of him following his £25 million move from Crystal Palace.
Then came loans to Sporting Lisbon, RSC Anderlecht, Aston Villa, and Middlesbrough, and finally a free transfer to Caykur Rizespor. The 34-year-old was released at the end of January after a brief two-month stint with Swansea following his departure from the Turkish club.
The former Everton winger is currently focusing on a new challenge that does not involve playing football in Europe.
Fabrizio Romano shares update on former Everton star
After reaching a pre-contract agreement, Bolasie is expected to join with Brazilian team Criciuma, according to Italian transfer guru Fabrizio Romano (via X).
Bolasie is scheduled to travel to Brazil this weekend to finalise his relocation; it is said that he obtained his work permit last week.
For a guy who was formerly thought to be the Premier League’s next great thing, it’s undoubtedly an intriguing move. Unfortunately, his move to Goodison Park most likely did more harm than good to his career.
Bolasie most likely signed when Everton’s fortunes started to improve, having fallen victim to Farhad Moshiri’s dictatorship.
His career has faded during the string of loan spells, and his relocation to Brazil is more evidence of this. It wouldn’t be shocking if the winger decided to end his career shortly.
The 34-year-old recently praised Seamus Coleman’s talent and expressed how much he still cherishes his time at Goodison Park. In an interview with FILTHYFELLAS Podcast, he declared: “Seamus Coleman is a great guy! Seamus feels chilly.
“He moves quickly! And incredibly strong! One fullback I can say is that it’s a true battle when I play against him.
“He is aware that we are engaged in a fierce struggle, but I am choosing to go in one direction while he is trying to take me in another.
“It was nice to have you on my side at last, Everton said when I arrived.”
