Summer Transfer Window 2017

Klaasen, Sandro, Keane and Pickford would be great if we didn't sell Lukaku to fund it.

We shall see

 

[Billy Dean]

We would never pay 30 million for him. I can guarantee that, it values him at roughly close to the world record which just isn't happening.

why not? Previous world records were before the massive PL money deal. World records will be getting smashed all over the place over the next few years.

I don't mind selling Lukaku to purchase 4 players that improve our overall starting XI.

That could equate to - gulp - zero net spend. Then whatever funds we did have allocated we can just smash on a top striker.

I hope so if that's the case

 

[GwladysBlue]

We shall see

It would go a long way to saying to the fans that we do actually have some ambition.

Step it up Walshy boy:

BOYD HAS OPTIONS

George Boyd is set to leave Burnley on a free transfer this summer with Derby and Aston Villa among the clubs interested.

Boyd is out-of-contract at Turf Moor and has decided against renewing.

 

[Manx Blue]

Pickford will be nowhere near £30m, it might get to £20m tops but it doesn't really matter - we have cash now, it's all about attracting the right kind of player & selling those players the ambition to which the Club is aiming.

The 'really' top players will be with us within 2 years.

Slowly, slowly ... catch the monkey.

These are very exciting times to be an Evertonian.

 

[Nymzee]

Potentially 3 signings wrapped up with Keane and Siggy to follow?

Getting some pretty heavy Juan Mata deja vu here.

 

[Tin-Tin]

Pickford, Keane, Klaassen and Sandro is a whole new spine of players aged 24 and under.

You're a legend eggs

I would be happy for Pickford, Keane, Sandro, Klassen, Siggurdsun and some Rooney as a cherry on the cake.

I get the feeling the Rom could stay (not by choice) and Barkley might be the one to go.

Something's certainly afoot.

Whilst that sounds easy, we have to consider our wage bill with FFP.

I'm sure the board have done everything financially possible to try and convince him to stay whilst also giving RK some room to bring new faces in.

Any extra 30k sounds nothing but in reality that's over an addition 1mill to a wage budget in the region of 75-80mill which we are probably constrained by?

FFP and STCC are irrelevant, so don't worry about them, we made so much profit this year were no where near FFP and as for wages we can spend an extra 30-50 mil before we sell Ross or Rom

Yes but not for a 21 year old goalkeeper who for all intents and purposes has done nothing to warrant a huge price tag. If the lad had single handedly kept sunderland up then fair enough but he is just a young keeper who looks like he 'could' be good. If we want him based on that hopeful potential then great, but when you look at much better goalkeepers going for much less than 30 million, from a relegated club as well, that price is far too high for any sensible club to be signing at.

considering Sunderland could essentially bring shay given in for a year and cover the position, it will be pure profit from them what we pay for Pickford.

 

[evertondotcom]

If Sandro, Klaassen, Pickford, Keane and Rooney get announced - Rom may change his mind.

Imagine if that happened, I'd be beyond excited for next season.

Pickford, Keane, Klaassen and Sandro is a whole new spine of players aged 24 and under.

and that my friend shows progress, forward planning and most of all potential for the future.
