Everton Summer transfers 2021

[NeilA1878]

There's an argument we should do a deal now to avoid a tribunal, take a slightly lower fee, but insert a large sell on fee in the deal.

I've seen rumours of around 5m but not sure if that is realistic, or if Southampton would fancy getting a lower fee than that through a tribunal.

A tribunal will set a 20% sell on, and the highest fee received at this point is 4.6M for Harvey Elliot I think.

Given Small is going to Southampton to be a first team player I suspect that the tribunal will set the fee at the upper end. Maybe 2M fee and 3M add ons with 20% sell on.

WE would have won both games easy if signings had been made particularly someone to push Keane - who is responsible for us not getting six points -

Cost us a European place (Spurs) too.

Good luck to him. Was unlikely to get much gametime with Niels and Digne ahead of him. We get a tidy sum of compensation as well unless Southampton try and cheat us, which will help us get players who can set us up for success now. Still think he has all the makings of a world class player however, and it will sting a bit seeing him reach his potential

Did I really just see multiple people in here say "good luck to the lad" about Small, after he took the **** out of us and refused to show up for training for weeks?

Could be having fun in the championship next season and I'm sure the little tit won't like that and spit the dummy

That lads contract should have been sorted out far earlier by us .....

We've been offering him new terms for at least a year.

And even if you're right (which, as above, I'd query) he's still a blert for just going AWOL.

he's 17 who cares, the Everton youth setup is a shambles.

Call me old fashioned, but yeah, I care that a player takes the mick out the club and just decides not to bother showing up for the start of pre-season.

 

[kenada_blue]

Well they probably say he'll have a clear pathway to the first team.

Which, based off my knowledge of their squad, he might do cause he's their second-choice LB now.

I'm pretty sure they won't have got him to be 2nd choice LB. He technically was 3rd choice here if we see it like that.

Not saying Saints don't have pedigree in bringing youth through...but I wouldn't say it would be an easier route for first team football, especially at 17.

Think overall he just didn't like it here rather than it being career focused.

He was still under school boys terms that were mutually cancelled when he decided he was off. He can’t have a pro contract until he turned 17 this month, negotiations for which started on 12 months ago.
not sure the club could do any more other than offer him ludicrous wages to stay (which the clearly didn’t)
For all the clubs faults, not sure they could have done it any different this time.

 

[Zatara]

Antony please.

Yes, at this point he would be the ideal signing on the right.

Saul being offered about on loan.

Come on Brands lad

Form has massively dropped off the past couple of seasons.

A tribunal will set a 20% sell on, and the highest fee received at this point is 4.6M for Harvey Elliot I think.

Given Small is going to Southampton to be a first team player I suspect that the tribunal will set the fee at the upper end. Maybe 2M fee and 3M add ons with 20% sell on.

With Livramento on the right and Small on the left theyve done really well for miniscule fees.

I have seen him play he looked very promising - he was never used by Carlo - lets see how he does - I agree his latest protest is not professional, but imo youth must be given a chance .... Carlo was useless at doing this, two keepers on the bench etc etc...

Let's see how well he does, maybe his mistake ?

Don't think it was mutual, according to reporting
