Everton January 2025 Transfer Thread

To be fair I’d be more worried if he didn’t perform in Turkey. Everyone seems to play good over there. Massive swerve league for me.

Yeah, I guess the caveat to that is he's only just turned 21 and must be a bit of a culture shock going from Denmark to Istanbul.

He could also just be gash.

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.

Really can’t see Chelsea being remotely interested in DCL. They dine at a completely different level than him and seem immune to any PSR difficulties!

Being linked to teams doesnt mean players will move to any of them. Same story with Jonathan David, he's been linked everywhere for 3 years -- why not make a move for him?

What do you make of these:

Kayode Fiorentina
Jelert Galatasaray
Sildillia Freiburg
Santos Lille
Zague PSG

Jelert linked

N'diaye works his socks off, wrong example there matey, it's the way he plays, even him though, if he was further up the pitch, he could be a lot more dangerous. I feel we are too defensive overall, the likes of DCL, Beto and now Broja have little support up front and are isolated at times. Anyway all the best mate I'm not arguing with you, just disagree a bit.

90% of the time (10% corners)

He can play both sides, i mentioned him back in the Jan window i think and a few months ago.

Did well in European games and highly rated before his move. Very positive attacking from what i remember

Kieran Tierney back to Celtic it seems, shame he has such a bad injury record would had been perfect for us.

 

[bluestevon]

He passes the eye test like. Worry as @Nymzee said is that he flopped in Turkey and they want rid after only 6 months though.

So did a certain...Super Kevin Campbell ....do I need to say anymore? ( Never heard of this cat by the way )

 

[jazzy]

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

What we lack is a manager who allows players to go over the halfway line.

 

[maccavennie]

Looks good

More than happy to take a punt and swap him for Mykolenko, Coleman, Young, Doucoure, Harrison, Mcneil, DCL & Beto to get this deal over the line

Sounds weird, but hear me out.

I dont want to see us spend money on players - Thats part of the issue we have now with this squad. Its a mix of players from 5/6 managers, terrible blend, doesn't mix at all....oil and water this squad.

I think we will see some loans, creativity on cheaper loans / frees - to get us to the end of the season with Dyche and the currentt football set up.

Spending on players now, with the plan of getting rid of all or some football people - is putting back into the same issues.

I don't think we have any loan slots left do we?

Mangala from Lyon
Lindstrom from Napoli
Harrison from Leeds
Broja from Chelsea

So we've got 2 domestic loans and 2 international loans already on the books.

I think @Goat tried to work it out a while ago if we were allowed one more international/domestic loan but I don't think he got to the bottom of it.

Makes absolute sense if you are convinced that Dyche keeps us up - which I'm not.

Also , I thought we had used our loan quota?

We need quality and fast, though
