Football: Cruzeiro Sign Ex-Everton Winger Bolasie; America Eye Defender Marcelo
The Democratic Republic: Clubs in the Americas continue to make big news in the transfer market with Brazilian club Cruzeiro taking on board former Everton winger Yannick Bolasie while top-tier Mexican club America have launched a hot pursuit of former Real Madrid defender Marcelo.
Cruzeiro completed the signing of former Everton and Aston Villa winger Yannick Bolasie on a free transfer, the Brazilian Serie A club said on Friday.
The announcement came after the 35-year-old parted ways with Criciuma, who were relegated to Brazilian football's second tier earlier this month. He will be tied to Cruzeiro until December 2025, according to a brief statement published by the Belo Horizonte-based club on social media. Bolasie, who had also reportedly caught the interest of Gremio and Fluminense, scored eight goals and provided four assists in 36 games across all competitions for Criciuma in 2024.
