Kevin is only the 'plan B' if Sporting fails to sign Yeremay Hernández, the main priority in the market
Kevin remains on Sporting's list of targets. However, the greens and whites have already established that they will only move forward with the extreme player from Shakhtar Donetsk if they fail to sign Yeremay Hernández, a player who is the priority of the Leonine structure at this moment and who is willing to move to Alvalade.
The young Spanish promise is the main objective of the greens and whites, however, the alternative is Kevin, who also happens to not be the easiest possibility in this transfer market, since, according to the English press, Shakhtar is only willing to release the player for 45 million euros.
For now, regarding Yeremay, an official proposal has arrived at Deportivo from Sporting that, with bonuses, exceeds 30 million euros. The green and white management is convinced that this approach can be the key to securing the player's services and is waiting for a response from the Spanish emblem.
In turn, Kevin has more suitors beyond Sporting. In fact, the 22-year-old extreme player was very close to moving to Fulham, under Marco Silva, this summer, after the English emblem showed willingness to buy his pass for 36M fixed, plus 3M for objectives.
Still, according to information revealed by the newspaper Record, the lions intend to continue pressing for the Spanish player, despite the Brazilian being a real option if Yeremay fails, since Kevin wants to leave Shakhtar this summer, which can be taken advantage of by Sporting.
