Everton Transfer Thread - Summer 2020

[jamieni]

Got a feeling no one is going to agree massive fees for players until the dust has settled and the financial impact of cv19 is apparent.

I imagine there will be a number of UEFA meetings etc to decide how to deal with this as the pandemic develops. Can’t imagine it will be business as usual in the summer.

How good is Ikone?

anyone with kone in their name is a massive swerve for me ... same as anyone with Williams , and form of Schneider, Oladie or andro

Everton could suffer major setback in changing transfer landscape

The value of Everton's squad could be hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic

Report out today says everton players valves have dropped by 30% due to coronavirus outbreak. It uses algorithms. Says pogbas valve has dropped by half. Maybe we are renegotiating Gabriel's valve. Think a lot of transfer activity will wait to see what the outcome will be

Typical negative Echo article.
If Everton players prices are dropping, surely everyone prices are dropping, which would mean players would cost less?
Its like the house market! Wether its high or low, if you currently have a property and are looking to move its relevant how the market is because if you sell at an inflated price, you have to buy at an inflated price

@Raino85 There next tweet 10mins later was Chris Beasley is he a red or blue?
Reporting on Paul Robison, saying he thinks Bolasie is a great player and Ancelotti could get the best out him

Why would you even report something as ridiculous as that unless you’re trying to wind the fans up
Bolasie is a donkey and i would imagine Ancelotti won’t give him the time of day.

Again just negative crap

So Richarlison is now worth less than what we paid for him?

Sake. This club!!!

Fortunately for us when considering Siggurdson Schneiderlin Niasse etc. 30% off no value whatsoever is still no value whatsoever.

It is a nonsense article.
You could also argue that the wealthiest clubs with the most expensive players will lose most because of the pandemic. They have the biggest wage costs, they are losing the most on cancelled match days and many of their sponsors involved in insurance and other financial areas must be very nervous about their future.

In a situation like this you could paint as many scenarios as you can imagine , all being arguable because we are in completely unchartered waters.

Its all monopoly money anyway. It literally doesn't matter at all.

We might actually get offers for Sigurdsson at £3m now.

I'm surprised they didn't follow that headline up with "but Liverpool player values have quadrupled"

We would still be mugging someone off at that price as well!

That means instead of accepting a nominal fee for our dross, we'd have to pay teams to take them.

I don't want to plug unnecessarily (but will) here i something I wrote last week on it https://www.grandoldteam.com/2020/03/25/financial-consequences-for-covid-19/

It's a bit raw, but I anticipate a drop of around 40% over the next couple of years (as a very cautious estimate). It could be much higher than that.

However, in general this would benefit Everton. It's a difficult picture as with any deflation/recession, and there are ways we lose out but in general I think we come out ok. Not limited to but in part;

1) We are not looking to sell high profile players currently (I want to, but the club doesn't)
2) In terms of recruitment, we can probably aim at much higher calibre players for much less money. (Coulibaly, Allan may come onto the radar if you subtract 40% of their value).
3) We have a very philanthropic owner. He is probably 3rd in terms of money granted. Nothing to suggest this stops. Now his money will likely go a lot further. Cash is King, and we will lielly have cash
4) There's a good chance we will lose FFP.
5) Unlike more hedge fund type organisations, based in America, very unlikely our ownership is as severely hit, or goes bust.
6) In terms of offloading deadwood (which is our selling priority) a mixture of loss of player values, an the devaluation of the pound (even against the Euro) suddenly players that may not have been so saleable become potential options when selling to European teams, See Sigurdsson, Scheniderlin etc.

It's an odd take

Good spin on it mate.
As i said, its strange that the Echo take that line with it, when as you say, it could actually benefit us
