Everton rumours 4

09 Oct 2026 08:56:09
So it's official Everton have been put up for sale 2 years after TFG bought us, here we go again never a dull moment at Everton.

09 Oct 2026 08:45:44
So its official. Looks like another winter window will pass us by as the sale is on. Hopefully it all gets wrapped up and we find a buyer who has some sporting ambitions.

08 Oct 2026 23:14:26
Sara linked again.

Thought we should have gone for him in the summer tbh. Would give us a completely different profile and would stop KDH being guaranteed 90 mins every week.

09 Oct 2026 08:02:49
Without wanting to get the broken record out again, we need to be looking at a striker and a left back as a minimum in January. Injuries and suspensions will play their part, and the decent start to the season will only continue with extra numbers in the right position. I'd settle for a couple of loans tbh.

07 Oct 2026 15:22:16
See Troy Parrot did well scoring 4 goals in the internationals, still think he was worth a go with us.

07 Oct 2026 20:49:52
Awful player nowhere near good enough for the Prem. Internationals is totally different.

08 Oct 2026 08:10:37
It's the old argument that you'll never no who's good enough and who isn't and will never no unless they play in the prem they said the same as olly Watkins Ivan toney and the likes in my opinion the Premier League is vastly overrated the quality of players now compared to the 80s 90s and early 00s is nowhere where near the same in 1992 we had a team with the likes of Dave Watson unsworth matterazzi Southall weir jeffers oster ebbrell snodin Beardsley abblett hinchcliff ride rideout and finished 13th that squad in today's prem would finish in the top 4 easy.

08 Oct 2026 09:32:27
Playing well for Betis and scoring goals in La Liga. Can't be that awful can he?

08 Oct 2026 11:31:22
Agree JB.

08 Oct 2026 13:05:43
Bit of a random collection of 90s players there Toffee and half of them didn't even overlap! We signed Oster in 1997, and he was dreadful. Jeffers made his debut in 1997 and had a decent spell then flopped at Arsenal and did not have a decent career.

Matterrazzi signed in 1998, good player for the season we had him but he got sent off every other week even back then and it'd be even more regular in today's game!

08 Oct 2026 14:28:05
John Oster blast from the past! He was crap though.

Think you have some blue tinted glasses on there TL. They wouldn't make top 10 in my opinion. Nice sentiment though.

Agree with you that the game has changed and I put that down to the explosion of money into the game. Now clubs will shop globally and the likes of Brentford, Bournemouth and Brighton have really good structures in place to make the most of it. The issue remains that the teams with ridiculous revenues are buying up all the talent whether they start them or not.

Parrot would have been worth a shout for me. Is he the next Haarland? Probably not. Is he better than Barry? Possibly. He certainly would have offered something different to Barry and possibly have less medical issues to Balogun.

08 Oct 2026 14:31:31
My opinion.

08 Oct 2026 14:32:36
I mixed jeffers with mo Johnson just looked at the squad we had Martin keown at the back as well barry Horne matt Jackson still that squad today would finish top 4 in today's Premier League the quality of players and style of play is shocking to watch plus it's become a non contact sport throw in the var and it's hard watching 90 mins.

09 Oct 2026 08:19:39
See Troy Parrot did well scoring 4 goals in the internationals ?.

02 Oct 2026 12:45:18
Have Everton played any friendlies over the last few days? I read that was the plan. They are exploring strikers options, eg Charly and Brennan J?

02 Oct 2026 12:56:28
Yeah I read that as well mate, hopefully they did.

02 Oct 2026 15:52:35
brennan was playing for wales.

02 Oct 2026 18:29:51
Played Blackburn today. Drew 3-3. Charly Alcaraz, Thierno Barry, Jonathan Nsangou scored.

02 Oct 2026 21:05:41
Is it just me, or do we seem to play Blackburn in a friendly every season, and we Never win. Always like 3-3 or we lose.

03 Oct 2026 00:07:54
Friendlies don't mean much at best of times, especially once the season has started. Just an exercise to keep those not away with their respective nations up to fitness and to break the monotony of training over the 3 weeks without a proper game. The young lad took his goal well after a good run with the ball by Grealish.

28 Sep 2026 17:42:31
Read an article that Jordan Pickford is a target for Bayern Munich hope this is a load of cobblers.

28 Sep 2026 20:18:46
We'd have to sell him for less than we paid Sunderland otherwise the PL will sanction us for making money on the deal ?.

28 Sep 2026 20:22:49
Good one mate.

28 Sep 2026 23:12:47
Based on the interest rate we are being charged by the Burnley commission, that would put him on around £30m plus £678m so shall we just call it a round £700m for him and we should break even.

26 Sep 2026 14:17:37
Perhaps now given what is going on with City we will win our appeal against paying Burnley anything. Just so it doesn't open a can of worms for City and the Premiership.

26 Sep 2026 22:50:49
i don't think the Prem mind opening a can of worms if the only people they fall on are us. Would surprise me if it makes no difference and they got off lighter than we did.

27 Sep 2026 11:06:57
The tricky question comes if there is a large points deduction ( which we all doubt) how many clubs might make claims they were relegated or kept out of Europe due to this. If Burnley win, the ramifications for city are astronomical.

27 Sep 2026 16:55:00
Agree EFCONE, the Burnley case is going to be fascinating now. If that stands then it opens the door for teams to claim loss of prize money given where they finished in the league. Loss of earnings for missing out on a place in Europe. It could take years to sort out.
Lawyers all over the country will be rubbing their grubby little hands.

28 Sep 2026 01:27:34
BMD, I really wish I was a grubby Lawyer for a few years on the back of this one ha ha.

28 Sep 2026 12:03:18
If we don't are we going to see an Infantino interpretation of an obscure rule to allow City off with a minor penalty.

25 Sep 2026 22:43:57
It now seems spurs are ready to cut their losses and sell Richarleson for a nominal fee in January, so, should we go back for him?

25 Sep 2026 23:00:53
It's a no from me, I don't really see the fascination with him to be honest. Plus, he could have joined in the summer but decided not to.

26 Sep 2026 07:53:18
yeah, agree with Jase - i liked him when he was here, but it seems like his ability has gone down while he's ego has go enormously up - and everything which should have humbled him (being left out of the Brazil squad, not getting the money he wants anywhere) has only made him worse.

Think it would be smart to steer clear.

26 Sep 2026 08:21:42
Depends on the fee.

If it's £5-10m then it could be worth a punt. He will be rusty as hasn't played competitive football for a while but he adds something different to Barry.

26 Sep 2026 09:38:06
I'd take him for 5-10m. Where else can you get 10-15 goals a season for that?

We don't know that it is his demands that are scuppering deals. All we know is that he said he wanted to decide his future and not be forced into something again.

26 Sep 2026 11:49:14
I would've snapped him up in the summer. but his attitude over wages put me right off him.

26 Sep 2026 11:57:52
Defo and better than what we have at the moment.

26 Sep 2026 13:03:43
I am worried he would be too much of a head case for the price. I would love to see him back via my heart of yesterday, but my brain of today tells me to run the other way, and so should Moyes.

26 Sep 2026 14:07:52
It would depend on just where we are in January when looking at strikers. If we don't have anyone else lined up then it would make sense to go after him. it could possibly make the difference between qualifying for Europe or not.

27 Sep 2026 06:44:48
Get him in it's a no brainier.

29 Sep 2026 20:50:39
Did he reject us over wages, or, the other reports were spurs refused to pay him his loyalty bonus. Truth is we may never know. i'd have him back at the reported 10 mil in a heart beat. Give him a blue flair for the signing pics too.

30 Sep 2026 01:01:09
Would leave richarlison firmly in the past. Thanks for the odd moments, the desire to wind up Liverpool fans and the constant theatrics but my god the love in for him on here never fails to amaze me.

Nothing against the guy and good luck to him but i wasn't arsed in the slightest when he left. doesn't work well 2nd time around apart from maybe peanaar who was a class act and got his head down.

25 Sep 2026 20:39:29
I hear there may be a budget signing of a left wing from City available soon, I think he is from Senegal.

No he can't play right back.

25 Sep 2026 22:33:20
Personally, I hope he enjoys playing in Cheshire league division two, don't think he will be getting his champions league career he left us for.

26 Sep 2026 07:54:23
Are you talking about N'Diaye?

03 Oct 2026 06:14:10
He left to secure psr for us. No I wouldn't have him back.

25 Sep 2026 14:04:27
Hey Ed I keep reading that TFG could be about to sell Everton for between 800 million to £1 Billion, with Amanda Stavely being heavily linked with the purchase, have you heard anything mate.

{Ed001's Note - Staveley is fronting up a new consortium who are looking to buy an English team, they have been working on West Ham, but that has become difficult, so she is looking around at who else might be available. She is a dealmaker, the front of it all, rather than the person who does the buying. She will no doubt take a percentage of the shares, like she did with Newcastle, in return, but she is not the buyer.

Everton is certainly an option, but is little real potential for property development investment gains, which could be an issue, as that is often the way to improve the value of a club. You already have the stadium, but there is not much they can buy around it to create a holistic package to gain revenue from. It is brand new, so they can't even redevelop what you do have. So I would think it unlikely to be the club they go for.}

25 Sep 2026 15:37:23
Also read as HD is not up to a full events program yet, that it will effect any purchase price.

25 Sep 2026 15:20:44
Thanks for the info Ed mate.

{Ed001's Note - very welcome.}
