Everton are being linked with a move for Udinese central midfielder Arthur Atta, with the Serie A player valued at €15.00m amid uncertainty over his contract situation in Italy.
The 23-year-old, who holds dual nationality with France and Benin, is currently on the books at Udinese and wears the number 14 shirt, but publicly available data lists no fixed contract expiry date, fuelling talk he could become a free agent if no extension is agreed. The reported probability of a deal remains unclear, with the move rated only as “?” at this stage.
Atta, a right‑footed central midfielder standing at 1.89m, has been establishing himself in Serie A with Udinese Calcio. Born in Rennes on 14 January 2003, he is regarded as a physically imposing presence in the middle of the pitch, operating primarily as a central midfielder but capable of fulfilling broader midfield duties.
The speculation comes with his market value currently set at €15.00m, a figure that would represent a significant outlay for Everton, particularly if no free‑agent route emerges. Both Udinese and Everton are competing in top-flight leagues, with Atta already tested in Serie A and the Toffees looking to strengthen for the demands of the Premier League.
Recent data lists Atta as part of Udinese’s first-team group, though detailed match-by-match statistics – including opponents, dates and scorelines – are not specified in the latest records. His performances in Italy, however, have been sufficient to draw Premier League attention and place him on recruitment radars.
With no confirmed contract end date and only tentative indicators on the likelihood of a move, Atta’s future remains open, but a switch to Goodison Park would mark a major step in his career and could prove pivotal in shaping his reputation in both European football and on the international stage if the transfer materialises.
