The 27 year-old former Italian international spent the last season on loan at former club Genoa, racking up 34 appearances in both Serie A and Coppa Italia matches.

Despite early reports of a permanent switch to the Grifone, Tuttomercatoweb have revealed a deal looks to be in place for Bertolacci to join Everton this summer.

Bertolacci drew a lot of criticism from Milan fans after he failed to live up to the €20 million fee paid to Roma for his services, and now looks set to be sold for less than €10m.

Along with the likes of Gustavo Gomez and Manuel Locatelli, Bertolacci has been taking part in pre-season training at Milanello, although all three of those players are expected to leave in the coming weeks.
