Everton Summer transfers 2021

Eleven would be a stretch Zat. If we let that many go (and I reckon I know who you're thinking of) we'd probably need to bring in six.

Realistically we will do well to shift another three or four (Gomes, Kenny, Delph, Kean - would love to see Keane and Tosun go too but can't see either of them appealing to any club on the planet) but we already need to bring in three as it is (RB, CM, RW). If we somehow start selling for real money we will, at a certain point, need to start replacing outgoing players!

Just the nature of the market atm, a lot of the players we need to shift are on too bigger wages.

It's nice in theory to think we could shift 10 for 50 mil but was never realistic.

I think we'll see more outgoings, but at best a few loans.

1:James
2:Sigurdsson
3:Tosun
4:Delph
5:Kenny
6:Gibson (gone out on loan)
7:Keane
8:Holgate
9:Iwobi
10:Davies/Gbamin
11:Gordon

If we moved on all of those 11 players we would need:

Centre back
Centre midfield
Wide player
Right back

So, 4 players that we already needed anyway.
 
I can see it being a mad last day scramble. James going, Coutinho in on loan, some young right back no one has heard of from the Leichtenstein 3rd division. Kean was unlucky last night to get sent off and have his goal ruled out, great finish, I think he could turn out to be a good player if he gets his head right.
Honestly, what would be the point of that? May as well keep James if Coutinho is the replacement. Same age, same injury problems, same big wages. Pointless.
 
James will still go I think, though you'd like to see some interest firming up in him.

I think Kean will go on loan to Italy likely, but always Turkey. That won't be ideal if it happens, we'd probably have to loan in a replacement.

I just don't think it will happen for him here, and not convinced he wants it to either.

Anything less than two signings (RB and CM) is not good enough. Three (RM) would be a good days work. Four (F if Kean leaves) is asking for too much.

I have a hunch we'll sign a right back and nothing else.
 

I would sell Keane and keep Kean.

So not bad news.

Everything's relative.
Yes. But it is hard enough to get anyone to take Kean (as we are finding out). Getting someone to take Keane will be impossible. He will be here until the end of that long and lucrative contract we gave him.

We need money to get some decent players in. I've no doubt that Kean has talent, but he clearly isn't going to contribute anything to us.
 
Old Fab's blasting through the good Everton news this morning. Loan with an obligation to buy - so we may have genuinely been in for him.

It could literally be pulling rabbits out of hats on Tuesday.

"Who's he?"

"Never heard of him!"

"Who does he play for?"

might be common refrains along with others that the filter will deal with.

Really?

We have played two league games.
 
Have to say, I'm surprised we're not in the conversation, given our desperation.

Don't rate him though. Looked really promising when he first started getting in the Lille team, but is suspect defensively and can't cross.

Welcome to Everton!
That has to be the biggest contradiction of all time, i thought my wife was confusing.
 
This is exactly why we cannot sell Richarlison this window. We could get all the money in the world for him but not one decent player out there wants anything to do with us, meaning replacing him will be nigh on impossible
And every player we would be interested in would magically have their asking price increased.
We need Richarlison's replacement in before we sell Richarlison.
