Everton have reportedly won the race to sign Brazilian winger Bernard ahead of Chelsea, AC Milan and Inter Milan.
According to Simon Jones of MailOnline, the 25-year-old will make the switch to Goodison Park subject to a work permit. His contract with Shakhtar Donetsk expired at the end of last season.
Phil Kirkbride of the Liverpool Echo reported that Bernard will have a medical with Everton on Tuesday:

"It is considered an excellent coup for new manager Marco Silva, whose personal intervention swung the deal Everton's way," said Jones.
