Everton Lodge €15m Opening Bid For Genoa Right-Back Norton‑Cuffy
The offer sits below Genoa’s roughly €20m valuation and leaves negotiations open while other Premier League clubs monitor the situation.
Overview
- Everton have submitted a formal €15m bid for 22-year-old Brooke Norton‑Cuffy of Genoa, with talks described as active but not concluded.
- Genoa value the full-back at about €20m, so the clubs must bridge the gap or find a compromise fee for a deal to proceed.
- Fulham and Brentford are also reported suitors, which could push the price higher or influence the timetable for any sale.
- Norton‑Cuffy is an Arsenal academy product who moved to Genoa in 2024, established himself in Serie A last season with regular starts, and would address Everton’s long-standing need for a natural right-back.
- Arsenal are entitled to a cut of any future sale under the 2024 agreement with Genoa, which could affect how much Genoa nets and shape the negotiation dynamics.
