Mertens has come out and said he's staying at Napoli btw.
And one of those Belgian journos reckon West Ham will be coming back in for Mirallas.
I think if Martinez can find a replacement who really, really wants to play for Everton, then he'll sell Mirallas and get them. Otherwise he'll keep Mirallas. He made a big point at the end of last season of talking about only wanting players who 100% want to play for Everton - if they're not that fussed, then eff them, essentially. If Mirallas is interested by West Ham of all people then I think Martinez will say 'off you toddle then mate'. Did think that Mertens would be the natural replacement for him if he did go though.
