Everton made huge deadline day bid for Porto ace Yacine Brahimi

Everton swooped for West Ham striker Enner Valencia on deadline day only after being frustrated in their bid for Yacine Brahimi.

A Bola says Everton offered €40 million to Porto for Brahimi, but it wasn't enough.

Porto insisted Brahimi would only leave for a price of €60 million.

This forced Everton to turn to Valencia in the final hours of the transfer window.

For his part, Brahimi had wanted to make the move to Goodison Park and was left frustrated by Porto's stand.
