Everton and Swansea ready to battle for South American, Welsh side make contact

Everton and Swansea City are among a host of Premier League clubs looking at PSV Eindhoven right-back Santiago Arias this summer, according to The Daily Star.

The Colombia international has won two Eredivisie titles in his time in Holland, with the 25-year-old’s enterprising front-foot play catching the attention of plenty of suitors.

The report suggests that Swansea have opened talks with PSV over a potential summer deal, but Everton are also in the running to land Arias.

The Welsh side narrowly avoided Premier League relegation in 2016-17, with Paul Clement able to rally his troops and condemn Hull City to a spot in the Championship next term.
