Morning mates.
Welcome to the 21st July Everton transfer

show…..
I’ve tried to bundle together as many of the transfer rumours flying around, combining them into one bite size and heart burn inducing portion for your dining pleasure.
I make some apology for some of the sources and articles used.
According to
The Daily Mail,
Anthony Elanga has rejected the chance to sign for the Toffees.
“Although keen to explore a move away from Old Trafford, he won’t be joining Sean Dyche’s side,” The Mail reports.
“Everton held direct talks with Elanga but the player has ruled out a move amid concerns over his suitability to Dyche’s tactics.”
Everton are considering a Championship loan for
Dele Alli, putting West Brom and Birmingham City on red alert.
French striker
Neal Maupay has been linked to Serie A side Salernitana. The 26-year-old disappointed this season, mustering just two goals across 31 appearances. Despite that, Salernitana football director Morgan De Sanctis is interested in Maupay, according to
Sportwitness via Gazzetta dello Sport. They lost out on signing Maupay last summer, and are still interested in bringing in the Frenchman. At the same time, Everton has been tracking one of Salernitana’s attackers, Boulaye Dia.
During the January transfer window of the 22/23 season,
Arnaut Danjuma was set to join Everton before the deal was
hijacked by
Tottenham Hotspur. However, according to
Fabrizio Romano, history is not quite set to repeat itself. The Italian Journalist has given the “here we go” for the Dutchman to join the Merseyside club on loan until June of 2024.
One player who has been tipped for a move to the south coast is Everton's
Mason Holgate, a versatile defender who has found himself falling out of favour in recent seasons at Goodison Park.
It was reported by
Mail Sport last week that Saints were holding discussions with the Toffees titan, who is also attracting interest from newly-promoted Sheffield United.
Abdoulaye Doucoure has admitted he was ‘very close’ to leaving Everton. Speaking to The Athletic, the midfielder has opened up on his struggles under Frank Lampard and how he was ready to leave the club if the former boss wasn’t sacked last season.
Wolverhampton Wanderers are reportedly among a host of Premier League clubs preparing an approach for FC Midtjylland midfielder
Emiliano Martinez. Footy Insider reports Wolves and West Ham United hold a strong interest in the former Red Bull Bragantino man, whereas
Tribal Football claims Luton Town and Everton are also in the mix.
With rumors swirling regarding the future of Everton and Jamaican winger
Demarai Gray, the 27-year-old gave strong words of focus and commitment to helping the club in its upcoming Premier League season in an interview with
the Football Daily.
Sean Dyche’s Everton could now reportedly miss out on Newcastle United winger
Allan Saint-Maximin. Earlier this month,
90min reported that Everton are among the clubs who are interested in signing Allan Saint-Maximin from Premier League rivals Newcastle United in the summer transfer window.
However, it now seems that Everton will not be able to sign bring Saint-Maximin, described as “really dangerous” by Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola in
The Mirror in August 2022, to Goodison Park this summer.
Villarreal have managed to offload
Arnaut Danjuma for another season. The Yellow Submarine signed Danjuma in a big-money deal ahead of the season before last, with the Dutchman going on to have a significant say in the club’s
Champions League efforts that year.
But since then, Danjuma has felt he is good enough to play on a bigger stage, only to be proven wrong. Last season, the winger joined
Tottenham on loan and spent the whole season on the bench, and after hoping for more interest this summer, he will now join an
Everton side who dodged Premier League relegation on the final day of last season.
It looks as though Everton are about to suffer a transfer blow as long-term target
El Bilal Toure is reportedly set to sign for Serie A outfit Atalanta.
The Almeria striker seems to have been one of the Toffees’ primary targets this summer, with the La Liga side’s CEO Mohamed El Assy confirming to
Diario de Almeria on 4 July that an offer had been made for the 21-year-old.
Villarreal forward
Arnaut Danjuma looks set to seal his Everton move in the coming days with a medical booked for Saturday (22 July), according to
Sky Sports News.
Sky Sports News reported on 20 July (16:10pm), that the Spanish club are set to receive a loan fee of around £3.5m from Everton with his medical booked in the next 48 hours.
