Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

[Billy Dean]

Really think it we are signing Maupay, surely he will play with Dominic Calvert-Lewin, we will need his goals as well as Doms.

Hopefully there will still be more on the way after him too.

 

[Billy Dean]

How has he got 4 full caps for Italy?

He's quite highly rated, did well for them in the Nations League recently. IIRC he was in Inter's academy and "did a Sancho" to Switzerland for more game time. It was something like that anyway, can't remember exactly.

Your point was "we're obviously offering him huge money to come here".

And that's simply not obvious nor speculated.

Then you spat your dummy out.

How very robust.

It certainly IS speculation. Unless you're going to now say it's fact, which I notably did not do.

Until the facts emerge, it's a reasonable suspicion that we've offered Maupay a big wage. Why? We have a track record for doing exactly that, we're close to the end of the window and running out of time, and he's refused to sign a new contract at Brighton. Context, sir.

Care to point out the dummy-spitting? Quote the post if you like.

Surely it was either Diaz and Maupay as I cannot see us signing both. If Gordon were to go, we need a winger (Pedro) and hopefully bring in Gana, Garner and Kudus and offload the beautiful Gomes to space.

I think it’s going to be a choice of either Broja or Diaz, in addition to Maupay. If we are progressing with Diaz deal looks like chelsea won’t let Broja leave so we’ve moved on.

 

[Tree13]

That's not true though is it. According to their own fan sites they have been in discussions over new contract for 18 months but player is stalling.

The player is stalling because?

Perhaps he's after more money than Brighton are willing to pay him?

Our marquee signing is Maupay!! Come on !!!! Spirit of the blues !!

Onana

Onana

Talented youngster , not quite marquee

Needs to be an absolutely enormous offer now to be considered. Like something truly un-rejectable. Maybe something over 60m with a loan player thrown in.

I'm leaning towards the idea he will stay, but it will depend on how desperately Chelsea want him.

I'm fine either way with 2 proviso's. If we sell him we spend the money wisely. If we keep him, we are still able to bring in the players we need, even if on loan. That being another striker on top of Maupay (happy with Diaz), some creativity (would love Kudus) and another DM (Garner or Gana).

There's a reason multiple people are challenging you on your posts, perhaps have a think about why that is.

A reasonable suspicion is very different to saying it's "obviously" happened and then wringing about it like it's fact. None of our transfer business this summer has involved giving players ludicrous wages.

I don’t know how cool you guys think this looks to other people but I’m here to tell you that it, in fact, doesn’t.

For what it’s worth I highly doubt we’ve offered Maupay an “Everton” wage. Part of why we’ll have settled on a scrapper like him rather than shot for something more exciting is probably overall affordability.

 

[bluestevon]

I see what you do and like it sir.

Yes he’s impressed clearly my Lewy Warro but indicates clearly a loan will be preferable for his development arc. I’m guessing that would be at Championship level.

Given Simms, Dobbin both went to that level I'd say yup Championship would be what we aim for.

Interesting who comes in - on current form it's more likely to be someone not currently being one of the ones touted (Gueye/Garner)

Hope Warrington gets a well suited loan and really kicks on, Lampard certainly seemed to really rate him

Na that was Tarka the Otter.

How on earth is he available for £5m then. That's what isn't making sense to me Bill.

 

[Paul Rideout]

Terrier and Dembele are entire tiers above Maupay. Chalk and cheese.

Yep. Really think we are missing a trick not going for Dembele.

Terrier doesn’t want to move apparently, which is fair enough. But I’d ask him again.

Beats me. Short term contract about to expire maybe? No idea.
