Everton told to forget about signing Andriy Yarmolenko as Dynamo Kiev rule out January sale
Everton have maintained their interest in Yarmolenko since failing to land him in the summer but Kiev president Ihor Surkis is adamant he will not be sold
Everton have been told to forget about trying to prise Andriy Yarmolenko away from Dynamo Kiev during this transfer window.
Everton have maintained their interest in Yarmolenko since failing to land him in the summer and chief scout Kevin Reeves watched him last month against Maccabi Tel Aviv in the Champions League.
However Kiev president Ihor Surkis is adamant the Ukraine playmaker will not be sold this month because Dynamo remain in the Champions League.
Kiev face Manchester City next month in the first leg of their last 16 tie and Surkis knows Yarmolenko is key to their hopes of progressing.
Kiev are notoriously difficult to negotiate with and Stoke feel they strung them along last summer before ruling out a deal for Yarmolenko.
We're slating the Moose, but the fella who wrote that also said that we'd beaten West Ham to Sam Byram.
