West Ham and Everton set to battle over Benfica's Andre Almeida | OneFootball

Versatile 28-year-old Andre Almeida has been fantastic for Portuguese champions Benfica this season and now a couple of Premier League teams are eager to snap him up.

According to the Express, West Ham and Everton are both keen on signing the eight-time international.

Benfica are asking £8m for Almeida, who can play both left and right-back in addition to defensive midfield.

Everton have been linked with a number of wing-backs to either replace Seamus Coleman or, at the very least, give the Irish right-back some real competition.

West Ham, in their own right, could seemingly make Almeida their number one option ahead of Pablo Zabaleta and Ryan Fredericks.

Almeida featured in 53 games for Benfica in all competitions, scoring two goals and adding 12 assists in 33 Liga NOS matches alone.
