River Plate targets Everton's Carlos Alcaraz ahead of summer transfer

River Plate has expressed interest in acquiring Carlos Alcaraz from Everton, as reported by Olé. This move comes after River's initial target, Thiago Almada, proved financially impractical. Alcaraz, who played limited minutes last season, is seen as a potential asset for River's squad. Everton previously invested €15 million in Alcaraz, whose contract extends to June 2027, suggesting any transfer will require significant negotiation. River manager Eduardo Coudet is reportedly keen on Alcaraz's versatility and energy.
