Everton are closely monitoring Konstantinos Karetsas. Genk's technical director, Dimitri de Conde, stated that it would be ideal to keep Karetsas for another year but that it is unlikely. Genk's CEO, Luc Huibregts, clarified that the motivation for a sale is not purely financial but concerns the player's development. Karetsas has a contract until 2029 and a market value that reaches 28,000,000 euros. Genk will not allow him to leave unless their terms are met.

Voetbalnieuws.be reports on Everton's interest in Konstantinos Karetsas for a transfer, stating the club is monitoring him.

According to journalist Alan Nixon, Everton are interested in Genk's 17-year-old Greek-Belgian attacking midfielder, Konstantinos Karetsas, who can also operate as a winger. The club was reportedly one of five English teams with scouts in the VIP seats watching the player during a Europa League match against Rangers. Liverpool, Sunderland, Newcastle, and Bournemouth were also said to have been in attendance, and it is claimed that all five clubs are contemplating a bid in January. Nixon also suggests that Genk is likely to sell the player, whose contract runs until 2027, either in January or next summer, for a fee that could exceed £20m. According to Transfermarkt, the player has a current market value of €20m.
