Press Association Sport are reporting that Everton's move for FC Twente midfielder Leroy Fer could be in trouble because of a problem with the player's medical.

Press Association Sport understands that medical staff have identified an issue which raised enough concerns for Everton to go back to Twente in an attempt to renegotiate the deal.

George

Wouldnt be EFC without some drama. moyes did say hold onto your hats the other day. Reckon it'll get sorted. reporting deal will be done by close of play tomorrow or we'll pull out.

29 Jan 2013 22:06:53
im hearing that leroy fer has failed his medical and may not be coming after all.

this was posted on tv news site earlier:

Balazs Megyeri's agent claims Everton interest

The agent of Olympiakos goalkeeper Balazs Megyeri claims Everton have renewed their interest after making an offer for the Hungarian last summer.

29 Jan 2013 21:30:21
just seen someone say that we've hit a snag on the Fer deal but they didn't know what it was... I've been hearing all day that apparently he's been arrested back in Holland (not sure why) so that might be it. No proof or confirmation that he has though, so don't take this as fact.

AB

How could he of been arrested in holland when he was here doing a medical? {Ed025's Note - its nothing to do with any alleged misdemeanor, its a medical issue..

29 Jan 2013 19:43:10
Really sorry and I am a blue and not negative but my sister works in our press office the deal as hit a snag but not his medical it relates to something back in Holland which is very concerning but hopefully will be resolved. Sorry all I can get off her. The Duck

Thanks for this Duck, lets hope they can Iron out the issues. Nothing's ever straight forward is it!

Wudz

I really hope this is Just a hiccup, twente president says we want to pay instalments and that's not acceptable.Surely all this was discussed and formalised before he flew over for medical etc.

Here we go again

If this is true, it maybe someone else has come up and offered cash, hope not

It probley something to do with his horse never mind deal ain't dead yet

I'll be proper pi***d off if we balls this one up, surely this should be in the bag?? Do you know any more eds?
Cheers,
Skeet {Ed001's Note - Everton tried to change the payment terms at the last second, it infuriated the Dutch. The question now is whether a deal can be renegotiated, which is difficult to say.}

Allways the ffn same everton minge bags

Its true!! Just on tv there are concerns over his medical and team arent 100pct happy, and there are issues over how fee will be paid. Grrrrrr

He looks like a good player, but we can't afford to pay £8m for a player with a dodgy knee. We already have Gibson and Miralles who can't string more than 4 games on the run together, and Coleman and Anichebe aren't much better.
We haven't got the luxury of taking an £8m punt - so the club is right to be cautious {Ed025's Note - i agree with the first and last bit...but giving our players stick, for being injured in the line of duty...is out of order mate..

Im not giving the players stick for being injured (never have and never will) Just pointing out that we have a small first team squad with 4 players who seem to struggle to maintain long term match fitness, and a few others the wrong side of 30. I just think if there is an element of risk in the deal the club is right to be cautious, and spend the money we pay through the turnstiles wisely {Ed025's Note - i agree with the caution, and spending wisely...but dont let this forum become another toffeeweb..so called everton fans moaning like little girls about everything that happens, the people on there are a joke!..

He's merely stating a fact Ed. We have enough injury problems with 1st teamers without adding to it. Meanwhile, is there any confirmation regarding the snag with Fer? I'm reading it's a medical problem while others are citing an arrest in Holland... BlueTone

I work with a dutch fella and he said that this Fer lad has a pending Lawusit against him in Holland for something serious this must be the snag, surely we would know of his injury if we have scouted him

29 Jan 2013 19:10:55
Fellaini is playing the best football of his career. His value will only fall after this transfer window especially if we fail to make the Champions League. Nobody has mentioned City. Ballotelli out and Felli in £30million in the next two days. You heard it here first.

Nostrawigus {Ed025's Note - why would they replace an out and out striker, for a midfielder nostra?...cant see it myself..

He would give them something totally different and they don't need another striker.

Nostrawigus

Sorry ed but if they offered 30m we would be mad to turn it down.

29 Jan 2013 17:48:21
Everton are lining up a 7 million pound deal for Danny Graham.
Moyes has admired graham for a long time now.
Kenwright is funding all of this on a deal he expects to be completed for fellaini in the summer.
Do not be surprised if we make another exceptional signing this window.
Fer in
Graham, villa, zarate, malouda all possibilities.
Also 8 million begovic from stoke in the summer.
Mikey

I think Graham is not good enough, Certainly if it was a loan, but not at that price

If we get CL football Fellaini will be staying so what then?

A provident loan to pay it back? .. DG aren't worth 7mil as well and would certainly not be looked as a replacement for Afroman

CraigD {Ed025's Note - if we get on the money-go-round, that is the champions league..it wont be an issue..

Not a chance

Graham? 7 million pounds? Is this some sort of sick joke? Danny Graham is not worth £7mill and I wouldn't take him anyway, not good enough for us; we're going for the Champions League Danny Graham is not a Champions Legue quality player

Really? 7 Mil for a 29yr old who isn't exactly prolific? No thanks, rathor us take a chance on Ince or Capoue.(ok not strikers but Far better players)eds?

29 Jan 2013 15:12:24
I'm hearing De Camargo and I'm hoping he's a smokescreen because 14 goals in 2/3 seasons and 29 yrs old would be an odd choice. Just my opinion. I personally think the next man in will be someone who hasn't been mentioned.(Again)
Pablo

I agree, De camargo is a good player, but I can't see him compete with Jelavic, or even Anichebe. I don't how much money 's left but if Moyes want a belgien striker, i'd rather go for Vossen, or maybe Batshuayi who is really promising and should not cost too much.

The Belgian guy

I like your thinking Pablo

Dave M

Somebody of Fernando Llorente quality and stature would be nice! {Ed025's Note - we wish..

29 Jan 2013 15:55:35
I'm not making up BS but I'm hearing Fer has had a mess up in his medical, please say this is a lie?
GoodisonAlex

I heard this too. And Moyes didn't seem too confident in his press conference.

Its a lie

So where has everyone heard this? from a reliable source or just randoms who don't have a clue

He ain't finished yet, only moyse kenwright, and medical team know what's going on.
You heard it, don't make me laugh wake up

You cannot call yourself a blue! Why would you even post this? How the hell do you know? Negativity has no place on this site!

Don't make me laugh wake up ? If you had a look you'd be able to find it you fish

I think tv would know more than your bladdered mates down your local kophite who's bitter now how funny are you lol

He did have a knee injury a few seasons ago, had an operation on it.
Could be like Ba's stoke medical failure.....

Yes you are talking BS because he is having his medical tonight unlucky koppites jealousy gets you nowhere just like where your team are now and will be even lower after arsenal and city batter you lol

BA has never passed a medical........

Gods Doctor {Ed025's Note - and you would know mate...being a doctor and all.. :)

The transfer is on hold, problem with medical. Everyone trying to change the payments.

I hope its not true butif it is we should go back in for the belgium midfielder and make it qwick if he is still avaliable

29 Jan 2013 21:32:36
I seen this on twitter, and it was from a few worried Blues! I really do hope its not true!
GoodisonAlex

Reporting this on tv atm so give 1st poster a break seems he was right! So much animosity on here sometimes its a rumour site after all!

Give the lad a break man he is a blue and he's a propper blue there is no other kind. And the only negativity is from people like you who slate the lad for telling us what he knew...LIAM!!#rumoursite!

29 Jan 2013 12:24:50
I'm not sure what to make of this but have just been told that apparently Everton are looking likely to sign David Villa on loan with a view to a 14mil permanent move in the summer. Arsenal were looking to sign him but Barca seem to think if he is a hit at Everton and help achieve champs league we will pay a greater fee than Arsenal will. Don't shoot the messenger guys. But Davey has already said he would jump at the chance and after the Fer deal would it really surprise anyone?

Thoughts eds and fellow blues?

SydneyBlue

Told by who exactly, you are dreaming I think, we would never be able to afford his wages let alone the 14 mill your talking about! Nice dream though

I think our attendances would go down and hospital admissions would go up if that happened as I and many other fans would be treated for incontinence and heart failure.
DublinTom.

29 Jan 2013 15:55:56
I'll have a pint of what he's on

He said it tongue in cheek

Where did you hear is SydneyBlue?

Unless BK & RE have dug (with heavy machinary) into their pockers I can't see us paying £14m for anyone.

Disco Dave

Hello mate, no matter what you post there will always be crabs giving you negative remarks trying to be clever! Anyway onto your post, I highly don't see this Happening mate, minus the broken leg David villa is still in the top 5 strikers in the world, true he may not be able to get a game, but that's cause of a tricky little fella called messi haha, Barcelona don't want to sell him, we can only dream and pray by some miracle were able to get him on loan some home haha then we won't be able to pay his wages unless barca pay half, as for the 14 million, I don't think David moyes would be willing to spend that on a 31 year old, bargain yes.. But we really can't afford to make those kind of splash the cash deals at the moment! Oh well I hope I'm wrong and we sign him haha keep smiling blues, something goods happening at everton :)

Giannis The Blue

Call me tight but I wouldn't spend 14 million on a 31 year old striker no matter who he is. There would be no resale value when his contract is up, say in 3 years. Best spent on a future star. Not that I for one second think we have 14 million spare after the Fer deal.

29 Jan 2013 15:20:52
You know what Syd I would normally laugh at this mate, but if this is the real Syd then I may get a little excited

Ed can you confirm this is Sydney Blue

Degsy {Ed025's Note - i have made a note of his IP degs, and will try to find out mate..

I would buy a 31 year old as that player could easy offer you 3 years of good service.

Out of the 3 years 2 pushing into the top 4 and shirt sales and attracting other names which would over look us. 15 mil would he a bargain for a player of his standard. Doubt it would happen but certainly would be a great buy.

Same here Degsy if Syd has posted this then it could be a possibility though I highly doubt it.
Joe EFC

Even if moyes said it tomgue and cheek itcould have been to throw clubs off the trail..?

I wish!

Ye no what, even if this isn't true, its just put a massive smile on my face. What a time to be a blue COYB IMWT

29 Jan 2013 11:37:18
With Leroy Fer almost done which NOBODY seen coming!
Ricky VanWolfeswinkle could be the next little surprise coming in is what i'm hearing with Butland and Stones.
Good window for us!
Mr Blue Sky

Would be nice but we would need 12 Million... Norwich have bid 7 Million And have been told 12 Million is what they need to pay... Not thinking this is likely but it would be great

Would be nice but we would need 12 Million... Norwich have bid 7 Million And have been told 12 Million is what they need to pay... Not thinking this is likely but it would be great

I wish, but I don't see it happening. Along with Fer, reckon we will get a striker in on loan, or a minimal fee.

Would like to see a winger as well given the injury concerns with Mirallas, but not expecting it.

---fox----
Not a hope Van Wolfinkel - £12m, a loan i'm afraid

Wouldnt that be nice very very nice but don't have that sort of money!!

You can say that again.

Van Wolfswinkel is quality, my mate seen him play out in lisbon..

29 Jan 2013 11:32:42
Igor De Camargo could sign today, but I've heard the return of count straqula is near on a similar loan to last season!

Nooooooo going backwards Strac nice guy but Shyte

Liked him at the time but no thx

Wouldnt mind the straq back again, Think only one of these two will come in to boost jelavic's confidence and work rate tho. can't wait for us to have a fully fit squad so Moyes has a headache being able to pick his starting eleven. the future of EFC looks promising

I hope the Straq rumour isn't true, he scored a good header once, but the lad wernt prem class at all, he reminded me of that lad who 2 for Oldham against the reds ha ha

---fox----
De Camargo is going to Fulham

We may need a striker but one who has scored 14 goals in 3 seasons is not really what we are looking for

29 Jan 2013 10:43:43
Just heard from a good source, ever ton FC are looking into a deal of around 2-3 million for Jamie Mackie from qpr

I like Mackie. He scores in a bad team. Works hard. But not sure he is type we need. We probably need someone with more pace as jelly man lacks it.

29 Jan 2013 09:09:37
Just found comments by Marouane Fellaini from a Belgian News paper saying that he's 'agreed a deal with a european club in the summer', this could be moved forward to january if fer moves today, gives us money to improve the squad, eds

29 Jan 2013 11:09:03
And where did you find these comments, and how come its only you who has found them

Degsy

Complete rubbish! He is staying till at least the summer. If we get champions league he may even stay as he even said so himself. Why would he talk to them papers again especially after the rollicking he got last time off moyes! Fellaini is a toffee now chew in that!

Where is the quote, provide the evidence! All comments from Felli, DM and club say fellaini isn't moving in this transfer window

Just sniffed up and thought I was in the countryside then realised it was the other sort of BS, the kopite sort!!
Mr Blue Sky

^^^May be he wants another "rollicking" from Moyes so he can move to chelsea this month? DJ

Gents don't need reports or anything, just listen to his Dad ( his agent ) never out of the press but he still saying that it is Chelsea.

I know a few lads that work in Hoos in Holland, just by the Belgian boarder and his Dad is always having a few at the pub and shouting his mouth off, bit of a Dick I believe

The only person who will decide if he stays or goes will, be moyes. If he does it will be 25 mill plus. If he stays great. No player is bigger than the club. Not rooney not arteta or anyone.

Weird, you say you found these comments and yet why wouldn't you post them on here?

Complete garbage, yes, Fellaini might be gone in the summer, but no way would it be this month and especially this late! Besides it cannot be Chelsea because only a club currently in the CL can activate the clause!

^^^Same was said about Ba.........Looked what happend! DJ

29 Jan 2013 06:57:28
Charlie Austin to come in on a year-long loan with the option to buy for £3.5m next January.

JG

Why would Burnley entertain such a ridiculous, preposterous idea. He's their top scorer and he's presumably in demand for a not too insignificant fee, in and around the £3.5m you've mentioned. But they'd let him go to us for free, in effect, for 12 months, when they could take that amount or higher right now ? Don't see it happening personally

Why would we loan a player off burnley. Get real mate. That's like Barcelona loaning a player of us

You couldn't make it up ! In fact yes you could and this poster has just done that.

29 Jan 2013 00:00:56
Danny Graham from Swansea doing the rounds, he wants out of Swansea so why not

Because he's not good enough for us, Danny Graham is not of Champions Legue quality

Swansea would want around 5 million for him. I don't think it would be a financially sound deal. There are better deals to be had than that. I would be dissapointed if we got Graham.
