Everton January 2022 Transfer Thread

….I never used to be this cynical, but I wouldn’t put anything past Benitez. I don’t believe Richarlison is injured, I wouldn’t be surprised if he goes in January.
Thinking that myself. He can go straight into a CL clubs squad.

Real Madrid got a few bob knocking around they don't need now for Mbappe.
 
To put it in perspective, he has several teenagers ahead of him now at Barcelona and they would almost certainly let him leave for nothing or on loan and subsidise the majority of his wages.
We’d be paying him at least as much as we paid James, however much that was, makes a mockery of the claims that we had to get him out as we couldn’t afford him. I don’t think Coutinho is going to play any more frequently than James did and he’s certainly not a better player, I wonder if Benitez and the club were a little bit misleading about the James affair.
 

I agree, but they are the stark facts. That is why I was looking at it. It is a minimum of four leaving in summer plus sales.

Siggy would have been a first team player. Delph and Kenny are first team fringe players. Mina and Richarlison are first team players.

The planning over the next two windows needs to be meticulous.
On the basis that Mykolenko has already replaced Digne, I reckon we will bring in another two this window, so it wont be an immediate big churn, a right back and a centre midfielder squad player is what has been suggested.

So next summer, reckon this is what will happen (unless DCL/Richarlison is sold sooner)

Keepers- as is.

Defenders-
Coleman, Mykolenko, Nkounkou, Godfrey, Keane, Branthwaite + new right back in Jan.
Out- Holgate and Mina, In- new centre half.

Midfield-
Allan, Doucoure, +1 new player in Jan + Gomes/Davies
Out- Sigurdsson, Gomes, Gbamin, Delph, Davies.

Forwards-
Gray, Gordon, Townsend, Iwobi, Rondon.
Out- Iwobi, DCL and Richarlison, In- three attacking players

I suspect Calvert Lewin and Richarlison will both be sold in either January or the summer unfortunately, giving us a complete reset financially and giving Benitez a massive budget to bring in the players he wants... but I dont see more than 3-4 players per window to be honest.
 
The contracts on Tosun, Siggurdsson, Delph and Kenny expire this summer. Tosun may leave in January. The others will probably leave in summer.

In 2023, the contracts of Mina, Richarlison, Allan, Davies, Coleman, Bergovic, Townsend, Nkounkou, Rondon and Broadhead expire.

Richarlison, Mina will probably be sold in summer. Allan probably should be sold while he has some value. Davies should be sold, but he may decide to see out his contract. Coleman, Bergovic, Rondon and Townsend will run their contracts out. Broadhead and Nkounkou may be kept? (We will need some depth).

So in summer 2022 we will potentially lose upto eight to ten players that would be classed as first team squad. Some of this is good news as they are surplus and a wage drain. Others will need replacing.

As a minimum, we will be looking for a right back to replace Coleman, a CB to replace Mina and a forward to replace Richarlison.

We may also need to replace Allan and with Delph, Siggurdsson and Davies all potentially leaving we will need one or two central midfielders.

There is also a possibility that we get a wildcard bid for DCL or Pickford, but we would face that challenge if it happens.
Either way, summer 2022 is a massively important window. It will point to the longer term strategy we are following and whether the next crop of academy players are being trusted, ie Simms, Broadhead, Gordon, Branthwaite, Dobbin, Onyango etc.
Incorrect. 2024.
 
Has there been any talk about what Rondon is on here? I saw some stuff saying he was earning about 200 grand a week in China so I'm guessing his wages are quite substantial especially with no fee involved.

There will be a number of players leaving at the end of their contract.
Richarlison will probably go to Real Madrid or even more likely PSG, Digne looks like he will be gone in January and Mina will also probably be sold unless he signs a new contract.

If they all leave that will leave us with a tiny squad and certainly there will have to be some additions.

I think it means Welch, Simms, Dobbin and Onyango become permanent members of the first team squad as well.

I know it probaly won't happen but I would like to see Broadhead given a chance.

That would barely leave you with a team never mind a squad.
 
Seeing some stories of Napoli interest in Mina. Maybe Ra-führer has had it with the injuries and is ready to move him on? Shame he's never fit, he's our best defender.

A very good summary, thank you
 
Thought it would be more based on the figures i'd seen from China but then thought Begovic would be much less than that too so still not great between them.
He was about to have his contract terminated, on poor form,unwanted, 31 and meant to be a bench warmer. He was never going to be on a big sum
 
No, you're right. We can build as per Leicester's model though, younger players and develop them, and gradually build that way. And when we get closer to the top we should have the infrastructure, support base and owner to really have a go at the top positions, but there is no way we can buy ourselves out of midtable now.
Ah, how quickly you forget the old ways. All will be well. ?
