Everton Summer Transfer Thread - 2022

Yeah but its everton reporters that said it first in the Athletic - you can ignore it but there is no reason for them to make stuff like that up.

And the above is irrelevant- the sale before 30th June is to satisfy the three year cycle of P&S- 22/23 should be absolutely fine replacing a 100M loss on the books. But if we dont get under that figure for the three (four) year cycle ending 30th June we wont be controlling any of our business- we will be at the mercy of the league for whatever period they see fit.
We've not been allowed to control any of our business without the premier leagues approval for all last season, so it will be no different now. If we want to spend, then we have to sell, which is fine, but if we don't spend then we don' have to sell. I expect we might let a few players go, and maybe, if our plans are to bring in certain players of value then we may let Richey go (our biggest cash cow), but our financial position was cleared by the premier league for last season, and will improve with the savings that we have already made for next season.

It really wouldnt make much of a story in the media if it was "Everton don't really have to sell players if they don't want to". We only have to sell players if we want to do a full re-build, which we may want to do after last season. It makes sense to sell Richey now as we maximise the profit on him, and fund a re-build, but in reality we could just keep him and strengthen (to a lesser degree) with the other funds we have coming in.

Spurs want £40m, we want £100m for him. Fair price therefore is £70m. Kenwright will be happy with £41m though as he'll feel he's won the negotiations.

Would be useful to know the amount of legroom we have financially without a significant sale. We've shipped a lot off the wage bill for players who were contributing nothing but it seems these regulations are more based on sales and profit. We could try to ship out Mina and Gomes also but likely that's much later in the window, if at all.

Perhaps with no sale we could sign Tarkowski and two on loan. Keep Richy, DCL, Pickford, Gordon. Or alternatively sell Gordon if the offer was decent as that has better effect on FFP and in theory, less harmful than selling Richy. It might be an acceptable but inherently risky strategy if our objective was no more than avoiding relegation by any means.

I'd imagine that we have told Richy he can leave and he wants to leave though, hence the derisory but understandable offers for him.

We'd need a Moyes type to manage in the scenario we had no pot for transfers and sadly our present setup seems incapable of such, whilst noting that football has also moved on in the intervening years.

I'd also think Lampard would want to begin reshaping the squad with most of the Richy proceeds.

So he will be sold and we may have to compromise on value. This is our punishment.

Roll up, roll up, Nymo going to fix the window. Let's shift Richy for £60-70m, Kean for £25 then reinvest. The below players, bar like 2-3, would be cheap as chips to get and fill up lots of vacant places where I think from the faux lineup we need about 6 signings:

CB
Moussa Niakhate (Mainz) - Heavily linked with Forest but they won't stump up £13m release clause.
Boubakar Kouyate (Metz) - Highly rated and just relegated with Metz so would be a snip compared to his £15m value in January.
Calvin Bassey (Rangers) - Expensive but left-footed and a beast. Last rumour was £25m.
Josip Sutalo (Dinamo Zagreb) - Almost as highly rated as Gvardiol who went for £15m so somewhere around/under that.
Eiran Cashin (Derby) - Available on a free.

Backup LB
Lee Buchanan (Derby) - Available on a free.
Destiny Udogie (Udinese) - Possibly a bit too attacking but another beast.
(I am of the opinion Nkounkou should be given the role though)

CDM
Ladislav Krejci (Sparta Prague) - Just sold their star player for £12m so somewhere under that. Reminds me of Matic when he was good.
Amadou Onana (Lille) - He's 6'5" need I say more?
Lucas Gourna (Saint-Etienne) - Might get ripped off and very young but Kante comparisons already.
James Garner (Man U) - Bit different to the others, maybe in the CM role and maybe a loan but seems decent.
Fredrik Aursnes (Feyenoord) - Wildcard pick from only a few viewings in the Conference League but gets around the pitch and looks a nuisance.

CM
Alex Scott (Bristol City) - Might get ripped off because he's English but great all round midfielder.
Enzo Le Fee (Lorient) - Tenacious and a passing master, average French side so won't be expensive. Linked away.
Nico Seiwald (RB Salzburg) - Most expensive on the list but baller. Last rumour was €20m.
Lewis O'Brien (Huddersfield) - Linked last Summer to Leeds for under £10m and now failed to get promoted so price won't be any different.
Abdou Harroui (Sassuolo) - Bit of a random one but I've enjoyed watching him play - does a bit of everything.
Jason Knight (Derby) - 12 months left on contract, snip for a few mill.

Winger (Either Side)
Ludovic Blas (Nantes) - Forever linked away from Nantes, peach of a left foot, very tricky. £17m last rumour.
Bryan Gil (Spurs) - One of the few classic wingers in world football now, available for loan, could be an easy one with Richy deal.
Keane Lewis-Potter (Hull) - Surely ends up going for around £15m in the end; looks a top finisher and can play 3 positions.
Ruben Vargas (Augsburg) - Great on both sides, decent delivery. Maybe under £15m? German sides don't really sell high.
Liel Abada (Celtic) - One I've seen least of but always looks to be in the right place to score. Last rumour was £17m.

Backup ST (Physical Option)
Terem Moffi (Lorient) - Strong, fast, left footed, bit of a maverick, cheap.
Mohamed Bayo (Clermont Foot) - See above but a righty. Last rumour was €10-12m.
Elijah Adebayo (Luton) - Battering ram, decent in the Championship, failed to get promotion. Maybe not for sale according to manager's quotes.
Erik Shuranov (Nuremberg) - Least experienced but always looked good for Germany U21's. Would be a project.

yep don’t sell!
