  • Everton Considers Signing Prospective Players

    indexEverton

    Among the three clubs of the Premier League that are considering signing James Rodriguez this summer, Everton is one. They have sent intermediaries to discuss the signing possibilities. James is a two times winner in the Champions League and a Columbian international. He left Toffees in 2021 and his present contract in Olympiacos terminated this year in April. Now that he is available it presents a good opportunity for clubs to land him during the window of summer transfer.

    Many experts are not sure how Everton will benefit from adding James to their team. Of course, it would excite the fan base if such a reunion takes place. The Toffees do need creative players in attacking positions. Currently, Abdoulaye Doucoure is one such player who mans an advanced position in the midfield. Of course, when James had started his previous season with the club, it had been in a brilliant style. At that time he had joined Goodison Park with Carlo Ancelotti as manager. (more…)

    With world cup football soon coming to an end, Everton football club is planning on buying new players in the upcoming January transfer window. Everton is reportedly interested in signing Borussia Monchengladbach’s Marcus Thuram, but the 25-year-old’s current £82,000-per-week contract is set to expire in the summer. If Everton were to sign him this January, it would cost them €10 million (£8.5 million) according to journalist Dean Jones.

    Additionally, the versatile attacker has also been linked with Bayern Munich and Inter Milan in recent weeks, meaning Everton faces a tricky task in attracting him to the club. Therefore, if the club wants to bring the striker to Goodison Park, they might have to hurry up in their plans. (more…)

  •           ATTACKER REJECTS PERSONAL TERMS OF PL RIVALS AS EVERTON AGREE DEAL

    indexEverton

    Nottingham Forest have reportedly failed to agree personal terms with Everton target Maxwel Cornet over a move this summer. According to talkSPORT, the Burnley attacker could not find an agreement with the Premier League newcomers while the Toffees have had an opening bid for him rejected. That said, they do have one thing working in their favour as they have a five-year deal agreed with him which includes £67,000 per-week wages.

    Cornet would undoubtedly be a terrific addition for Everton this summer and they must do all they can to get Burnley to reduce their asking rate. However, they now need to be aware of Newcastle’s interest in the player as they’ve got super deep pockets. They’re also a club on the rise, unlike Everton who were fighting a relegation battle last season. The financial situation of the club also means that they cannot really match up with the Magpies’ spending power and it’s going to be extremely difficult if Newcastle as seriously pursuing his services.
