Everton January 2022 Transfer Thread

"He comes in for four days and the Academy decided he wasn't good enough, something that Brian King didn't agree with. He thought there was a real talent in there but they didn't agree. He was one that got away for Everton, but you get that in football. I think Haaland would have suited the English game, though."

Let’s be honest, if he had came here he would be nowhere near the player he is today.
He would have joined our long list of very highly rated foreign youngsters who never got to even see Goodison Park.

Sorry I have no idea who that is! Who is it?

That is the legendary champions league winner Djimni Traore. Perfect to sort out our current shortage at left back (tongue firmly in cheek).

Put it like this at Newcastle he wanted Bruno before he went to Man Utd, asked for Praet and Tielemans before they went to Leicester. Tried twice to get Tammy Abraham.

I'm sure most of Europe wanted Fernandes to be fair mate.

Your right, great lad! This is the first step on the road to becoming a genuine ITK!

Cant see us back in for maitland seems was a last option for cover. I think we will be looking at ramsay and patterson. Maybe arrons but pretty sure the club have moved on

There was no time frame on when (or even if) Benitez wanted Fernandes. I remember us being linked with him for at least 18 months before he went though.

Yeah I'm just pointing out that Fernandes kind of revived his career out of nowhere. If someone saw something while he was in Italy he'd have been theirs.

"Bruno Fernandes was a player we were following at Newcastle United," Benitez revealed.

"He was at Sporting Lisbon and he had an issue with his club. There was a chance he could leave on a free.

We were progressing but the problem was that the matter would go to court and that would complicate it. The club didn’t want that.

Didn't realise he still played, must he getting on now!
