Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

[Baggzio]

I’d find Gana himself holding up the move to be a massively strange thing honestly. Fair enough if he wants a deal from PSG to go but he surely wouldn’t scupper a move because of it, especially to a club he seems to have an affection for and knowing he’s probably gonna be first choice. The only thing that’d make sense was if we offered him a contract with an enormous pay cut to what he’s on now which I don’t think is likely.

I mean the boy has like 87 pace on fifa which is a good start

€30m according to this: https://www.sn.at/sport/fussball/in...holt-sich-den-naechsten-bullen-star-123692200

I’d be amazed if we could afford another deal like Onana this window.

 

[micknick]

Would rather him than Gana but still think Gueye will happen.

Sounds like we're trying to spook PSG Into dropping their demands.

This. It’s all smoke and mirrors to move it along.

A midfield that can’t pass lol

You may have seen more of him than I have, but from the bits and pieces I've seen Camara has far, far more progressive passing to his game than Gana does.

Not that I don't think that Gana is a cracking player, but if you think a midfield of Camara and Onana can't pass, surely you must have the same opinion of a Gana/Onana duo?

I can't see us spending £25m/€30m on another midfielder when we haven't gotten a back up striker plus Gueye is just waiting for extra cash off PSG.

I'd personally love Camara because he represents a positive front looking signing who would only improve and build his value at the club.

I am not a fan of signing Gueye unless it is a loan because he's 33 soon and will be on a 2 year deal on big wages plus he will be in the region of £5-10m

 

[Efcjake]

He wants a payout from PSG. This is to make them hurry up and pay him out.

Now then now then.

Everton switch focus to Red Bull Salzburg midfielder Mohamed Camara

SIMON JONES: The Goodison club have been pushing hard to re-sign their former midfielder and had hoped to finalise a deal this week.

I'd feel gutted if Gana fell through, but it would last all of 15 seconds if we brought this guy in instead.

Camara doesn’t sound that realistic financially.. maybe it’s a rumour spread with the intent to “hurry up” Gueye.

Aye this.

With Camara and Onana we would be set in midfield for the next 10 years.

They would be absolutely formidable. Strong, disciplined, pacy, tackling machines who can pick a pass.

Tbf even the midfield now aren’t very technical or good at passing, I feel we’re lacking someone in the centre with technique and being good on the ball.

TBH since the Onana deal I've wondered if it would be us pulling out rather than difficulties with PSG or the player. They want him gone, he's got very good and comfortable fallback option in us, given the cost of it it's a deal that's probably most questionable from our point of view. Although I thought if we pulled the plug we might put the funds towards the forward chase and loan a midfielder.

Mr TW by your good grace could you please smite up to 3 people in this thread and ignite a bonfire of anger please.

Psalm 37:8
Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath! Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil.

God bless you my son.

 

[SLAVEN BILIC]

If we spend what money we have on this Camara guy, then we are defo only looking for a cheap back up striker.

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

Do we even have the ability to do this, as a club?
