Johnny Heitinga’s agent confirmed he’s likely to leave Everton in January and “would like to play in Italy.”

The 30-year-old Dutch defender will be out of contract in June 2014, so the Toffees are eager to sell before then in order to avoid losing him on a Bosman.

The 30-year-old Dutch defender will be out of contract in June 2014, so the Toffees are eager to sell before then in order to avoid losing him on a Bosman.

“There is a good chance Everton will sell in January and we are evaluating several opportunities,” agent Robert Jansen told Calciomercato.it.

He has been linked with Fiorentina and to a lesser degree Napoli over the last few days.

“Johnny would like to play in Italy, but for the moment I haven’t had official contact with Fiorentina or Napoli.”
