Confirmed Signing Youssef Chermiti

[Zatara]

OK.

How about if I told you we could sign a striker in his mid-twenties who has played 3 seasons of top flight football in England, scoring approximately 25 goals in total during that time.

Would this type of player suit what you mean?

If you were on the recruitment team, id sack you.

Didn’t Dyche say nothing was imminent? Who is telling porkies here?

To be fair, Everton transfers & imminent never go together.

Dyche is lying.

Managers always do.

We have some movement on Chermiti this week which will give us a boost to the squad especially with McNeil out for a period and Danjuma still with a niggle.

Gray transfer will surely be sorted after we play Fulham plus we have recent links in Grotto or Sulemana who are excellent attacking options plus a defensive midfielder in Martinez.

We still have Gbamin, Gomes, Holgate and possibly Maupay to ship out but if we are honest they don't directly effect out starting XI.

It's not ideal window but we all know the restrictions and budget we are working with especially with the new stadium.

The likelihood is we are going to be wheeling and dealing until the end of the window unless we can ship out one of our duds for big Saudi money.

Grotto will be arriving in the Christmas window

We finished 17th last season.

At least he has a bit of height and is young. What is good return from him this season? 5-10 goals and 5 assists, that what we need bare minimum from him.

Sorry, that's completely unrealistic.

The guy has played about 10 full games worth of top flight football in a lesser league.

If he gets any goals this season it's a bonus. He'll be used sparingly, and rightly so.

If we're forced to rely on him do to Injury and recruitment failures, that's not on him.

Spending the Chermiti money

The Sporting fans seem rather pleased with the reported fee they’re getting for him.

Cherpy Chermie is ours at last. Two more signings and we should be OK. Well sort of ok, I hope.

Did I miss something?

Cmoon lad you'll become hero here just like Drenthe did

I guess value for money is a moving target. Realistically he is isn’t worth £12m today as he’s done nothing. But if we flip him for £35m in 2 years, which club/set of fans is happier? Probably both happy.

…25% sell on clause was reported for Chermiti.

That's sound. I think if he was 19 and Ronaldo levels already, we'd have no chance of getting him.

Its a gamble, but I think all transfers are to be honest.

Fabrizio re-re-re confirming his exclusive story (that’s also been reported by Alan Myers, Joyce and the Athletic) is a bit try hard, isn’t it? Not like it’s him that’s going to get booed by the Park End for not scoring/chasing/only scoring goals is it?
