Player Valuation: £50m
If he's coming in, I do want to know what his overall plan is and for how long.
All well and good the club wanting him. But id rather know what he wants to offer us.
I'd imagine he would be quite open in that respect.
After his recent "stints" at Hull and Watford, the onus is on him really to grab a job and put all he has into it, with a view to it being for the longer-term.
It's a risk for both him and Everton if it happens, he can't afford another short-lived stay at a club and I really doubt that he'll be able to make enough of an impact over a short space of time to allow a club further up the food chain to come sniffing. He would need to make a sensational impact for that to happen. Perhaps he may be capable of it over the course of a three-year contract, who knows.
I think he probably wants us more than we want him at the moment, but it does appear to be like a marriage of convenience for both sides. I still think he'll come here on the basis that Fonseca turns us down. We are not blessed with a luxury of options whatever way you look at it.
