Everton January 2025 Transfer Thread

[Zatara]

More common than you'd think. When "options" are agreed in a deal, it's not uncommon at all for a player to have to agree a future contract as part of the deal - this gives the buying club assurances that someone isn't going to come in and gazump them on personal terms of they have a successful loan spell.

Another example, albeit in a slightly different scenario, Deulofeu when he was here the 2nd time around and Barca held a buyback clause, the contract was pre-agreed - Deulofeu effectively had no say in it if Barca exercised the option because he'd already signed a deal which committed him to a contract if they did it.

Same as Yerry Mina as well.

Next to 0% chance he would play for Barca again. But all had to be agreed before we signed him.

Barca also sign players they have sold using their options. Those players get game time elsewhere, prove themselves and go back to Barca.

I wouldn't rule out...

DCL permanent departure
Broja permanent addition
Ferguson loan

Yeah dont think so if you think broja will be a permanent addition now, is not a chance. First the dof and manger has both questions if be here next season. Two if we even have the money to buy him sure was alot of money, has not done anything to show is worth even buying him atm. The cf postion will not get looked at until we sell one this window will be fb winger and attacking mid u less we sell a cf then maybe one comes in.

Selling DCL benefits us for PSR
Selling Broja benefits Chelsea for PSR

Their has always been an interest in a permanent deal and suspect it may have happened if not for Broja injury last year.

I wouldn't be averse to making Broja permanent to free up the loan slot but it would have to be way below the 30m clause as the jury is very much out. If Chelsea want the sale booked this year for PSR I'd be inclined to test the water at 15m with some clauses.

Agree with dcl but wrong about broja you think what little the club have to spend will be spent on him this window. When we only wven play one striker, is not a deal the club will be making this window. Saying because chelsea will want to sell for psr is crazy already have alot of players to sell so wont just be a cheap deal for us to buy him. Can say now broja will not be bought by everton this window

I believe @jinkyali is suggesting that something akin to a 'player swap' may happen between Chelsea and Everton for DCL and Broja.

In that instance, DCL may be valued at £15mil and Broja £30mil (pre-agreed) leaving us with a £15mil shortfall on the deal but with a total pot of £75mil possible spend over 5 year player contracts.

Shows how far we’ve fallen. Villa who were championship a few years back sending us their dross whilst they raid dortmund.

Kev The Conk showing his scouting network skills going back in for players already rejected us.

Lad, we swapped Tim for Dobbin and fleeced them of over 50mil for a half arsed Onana, I'm pretty sure I know who got the better deal between the two clubs.

I know i forgot a half arsed onana was our best CM and would still walk into our midfield now

No denying that, but can't keep a player when he wants out and the PSR is calling.

Can you imagine that Philogene from Villa in Sean Dyches team, because i certainly can't, for 1 he will get him defending covering young or Coleman.

So unless he is a Harrison clone, he won't get picked.

This is another reason why he doesn't want a striker coach incase they tell the striker to do something that doesn't involve defending

….most wingers these days are required to work both ends of the pitch.

He's just a kid who sometimes plays for the Brum
But he'd rather be back in Hull"

What they attack as well.??

….exactly. What we lack is a right winger who can attack.
