Everton Summer 2024 Transfer Thread

Just watched a video, kid looks quality and very similar to Minteh but plays on the left.
The wettest of dreams is both.

Gives us legitimate depth on the wings and even centrally given that McNeil can move into that spot if needed. Can’t see McNeil being dislodged from the left wing spot immediately and that’s fully deserved to his own credit
 
Is this one of them 'We are now moving on from Minteh, so good luck selling him, Newcastle' type of enquiries?
That's the sense I get, the Mail have it now too so it feels like something we are happy to put out there. At the very least it makes the point that there are very good young wingers we could get for half what Newcastle want for Minteh.

I'd say Mcneil with his 3 goals and 5 assists can be punted to the moon for all I care mate 🤣 the left hand and right hand side should be up for grabs and if we did end up with both the players mentioned, we'd finally have a direct, rapid presence on both wings....which is why it won't happen and we'll be stuck with Mcneil and Harrison.
 

Lets hope we've met PSR. Some fans thought we did just by selling Dobbin. We didn't. Hence Godfrey. I still think we're a little short and I predict we'll see some movement with Calvert-Lewin, or academy players by 30th.

I don't think we are short post-sale of Godfrey, I think we're within the PSR threshold just marginally - but what I think is happening is:

(1) DCLs party wants a bigger wage to sign an extension, fairly reasonable for them to put that forward, contract has been on the table for over a month now and still no agreement;
(2) Everton don't want to do that, so they need to shift him this summer to maximise a return a la Iwobi;
(3) Everton also have one eye on the outcome of the interest hearing and how that could impact PSR compliance - in other words if we do fall foul in that hearing, we will be in breach of PSR again by a healthy amount;

(1) + (2) + (3): Everton can kill two birds with one stone by selling DCL pre-July. They can be prudent in respect of worst case scenario possible changes to our PSR compliance applied retrospectively - they can move on a player that they need to move on this summer anyway.

Even better, (4) - They can get a bit of cash in the door to try and take advantage of other clubs PSR perils, ie;- they can go out and sign a Minteh on a discounted value from Newcastle.

Makes a lot of sense . Only thing is though this is Everton and we don't usually exercise foresight or planning.
