Everton January 2025 Transfer Thread


Looking quite unlikely we are going to sign anyone that will make any sort of difference to the end of our season...

2 of our starters are out injured, we needed 1 or 2 starters even before that!

"Timmy, Garner, Chermiti will be like new signings"

"Difficult window", Everton being the only team that really really struggles

"Go with what we`ve got"

Seen it all before......
 
Last striker Brighton let come this way was Maupay - makes me very suspicious that they aren't too bothered about Ferguson leaving..
Tbf he does not suit the eay they play and they probably need to sell a few for PSR after all their spendinf in recent windows. But yeah I am not sure we have the room PSR wise or if we should be risking it on another injury prone player.
 

We don't have to get a striker specifically (we should), but we definitely need a winger or someone pacy that can play across the front at the very least. You can get a mirallas type that can fill in up top or something similar, but we need something. Kev kind of leaving us bare again here potentially. I hope we have an idea and get someone in.

Problem with striker is you almost never get value. I would rather us get the right guy than a warm arse for the bench.
 
PSR is only an issue when you are the wrong side of the limit. And you have to go some to get there. We were appallingly run and almost managed to blag our way back to compliance by blaming Iceland.

If we bought a £50m striker on a 5 year contract tomorrow, less than £5million (plus salary) hits the 24/25 accounts. Sell Dixon in June and make £5m profit covers that. If we sold JB in June we could make £50m+ profit towards PSR.

Once you have headroom, it’s not hard to keep it unless you buy a half a dozen terrible, injury prone players on long contracts, bad ages and massive salaries, and build a stadium using terrible high cost loans. Hopefully those days are gone. But we now have one fit, not very good striker. In the Premier League. In 16th place.

Not having PSR as an excuse. It’s either cash availability, player availability, our attractiveness to good quality players and KT and Moyes willingness to punt that will determine incomings. A win this weekend will help our attractiveness, removing another excuse. Player availability will be the issue.
