Any new signings are likely to happen late September / early October - the transfer market has barely started yet.

The Barcelona fire sale will kick things off.

So, err, anyone fancy us getting Messi?

Park Enders will be booing him by November for not tracking back.

Everton are confident a key part of their transfer strategy can still be executed this summer despite the financial restrictions brought on by the coronavirus crisis.

The Blues were forced to re-think their plans for the window when the Covd-19 pandemic struck and Marcel Brands has warned that it will not be a "big-spending" summer.

But Carlo Ancelotti remains confident the club will be able to land players to make the squad better - "we are going to improve the quality of this team, 100%" he said - with Everton expecting a handful of signings.

Some of you really just need to chill out and let them do their thing..

5mins after that Kirkbride stated were not upping our bid of €20mil for Gabriel to match Arsenal/Napoli at €25mil (despite us previously agreeing €30mil apparently).

Certainly doesnt seem positive for any 'transfer strategy' when Hojbjerg went to Spurs as well.

Zat... clearly the club don't want to pay €30mil for him post-Covid, and especially don't want to end up in a bidding war were his price could go up even further. Hojbjerg didn't even want to come here.

We move on. We aren't the Arsenal's/City's/Utd's/Chelsea's of this world whom can convince most players out there to join the club. We clearly have to work a bit smarter and more long-term now, yet this seems utterly lost on some people.....
