Aleix Vidal has been spotted in England, with many believing the starlet is desperate for a move to either Liverpool, Everton or Manchester United.

Aleix Vidal isn’t going through the best of times currently, with Barcelona open to parting ways with the Spaniard. While it seemed incredibly likely he would return to Sevilla, sightings of him and his agent in England has suggested otherwise.

He’s failed to hit full gear during his time with the Catalan club, which is saddening because he was considered to be the next big thing when he arrived. After picking up a steady run of game time, Aleix Vidal suffered an injury which set him aside, and his chances of stardom slowly deteriorated.

However, Sport Witness have reported that he’s aiming to get back on track. To do that, he has been in talks with Premier League clubs in ‘either Liverpool or Manchester’.

The Spaniard is incredibly versatile, playing almost anywhere on the flanks. He could be a truly reliable asset to any team, as he’s able to adapt to play under any manager.

With Sam Allardyce voicing his opinion on the players available, many would sway Aleix Vidal to work with Everton. The Merseyside club would be able to offer the most game time, which could prove worthy with the World Cup round the corner.

The new Everton boss has already been in contact with Barcelona this transfer window, as he was interested in an attacking duo of theirs. Although these negotiations proved unsuccessful, there was certainly intent shown by the Everton hierarchy.

Aleix Vidal has appeared in 13 of Barcelona’s games this season, with most of those appearances coming from the bench. However, if Everton is the club he’s in contact with, he won’t struggle for minutes as much, with Everton experiencing many injuries in that department.

What do you make of this news? Would Everton be the sensible choice for Aleix Vidal out of the ‘Liverpool and Manchester clubs’ or should he look elsewhere?
