Use our rumours form to send us everton transfer rumours.
17 Aug 2025 21:26:38
Behind the scenes we have a lot of new faces in new positions when it comes to recruitment. We have brought in quality in kdh, grealish and Aznou who was highly thought of at Bayern.
We have been linked with various other quality players ie Fofana at Lyon and Luiz at juventus and dibbling at Southampton to name just a few.
However, we have struggled to get deals done with various players, some didn't fancy playing for a team that had been fighting relegation for the past few season, others wanted European football etc. or we were quoted crazy money for the players.
The one thing I have noticed is that Roma seem to identify a player they want and get it done with minimum fuss, whereas everything with Everton always appears to be dragged out for an eternity.
While we have 2 separate clubs under the Friedkin umbrella you would have to wonder how then can do it with the minimum of fuss?
I would imagine playing regularly in Europe is a huge draw for most players, but is their structure behind the scenes what we have? Is it that they are further down the road using it?
Or is the people we have involved brought into their positions too late this season and need more to time to adapt.
While I'm glad we're not using the scattergun approach, I always wonder why every transfer involving Everton is so long and drawn out. I for one would love to get up some morning and see we have identified and signed a player with minimum fuss.

I dare say if we offered 50m for Dibbling then we would have him now, and if we offered 50m for Grealish we could have had him weeks ago. But the club are trying to get the best deals for Everton, and if that means waiting for the right players at the right price then it's what they have to do.
Fans said they wanted the club to get rid of the "waste of space" players, this they have done. They asked for better quality players, this they have done, and they asked for young "hungry' players and their doing this.
Really not sure how much more they can do so just be patient and let's see where we stand at the end of the window.
{Ed025's Note - it cant be done in one window Brass we all know that, it is not a quick fix and FSG do not have a magic wand, yes we need players in but they have to be of the right calibre and this season for me is about consolidation, im not even contemplating a push for Europe and i think its about being realistic mate..

Roma has a greater pull factor than Everton so it unsurprising they can get their targets quicker than we can. Once we get regular European football things will change.
18 Aug 2025 13:41:12
Yeah I heard that one with Man U this eeek bog club and all that jazz still they get beaten hmmmmmmmm.

Dom off to Leeds then. Hardly a step up. Not sure he's had the interest he expected.

When did they get in the Champions League?
13 Aug 2025 21:01:31
He’s got to pass the medical first.
13 Aug 2025 21:16:16
Passed his medical then injured himself high fiving the physio lol.
11 Aug 2025 15:50:05
Fair play to Forest. 20m for young McAtee is a steal.

Yea can't knock it that's a good bit of business by them.
12 Aug 2025 16:38:28
I think our business is better what a signing.
12 Aug 2025 21:33:35
Well time will tell on that GB. But they’ve got a young player with lots of potential for the next few years. We are paying a similar amount for Grealish for one season.
13 Aug 2025 07:24:11
Sorry BMD but the fees are not similar.
Grealish £12m
McAtee £30m
Whilst it appears Forest have got a decent deal with that you can’t say it’s a similar fee to Grealish.
They’re signing potential, we’ve signed a player that’s achieved his potential. We’ve also signed a big name who will hopefully encourage others to join our project.
Personally would have also liked to have signed McAtee - however I’m fairly confident TFG know what they’re doing so if they didn’t see him as part of our project I’ll trust them.
13 Aug 2025 08:35:25
Dan it’s been said they paid 20m not 30, and would think we are paying much higher wages. Therefore it would be similar.
Agree Grealish could and should make a huge difference to us for one season. However not sure it will attract better players if he ends up only being here for one season, as I can’t see us paying 50m for a 30 year old in the future.
As I said time will tell.
13 Aug 2025 18:51:40
Marquee signing Grealish.
06 Aug 2025 14:41:49
KDB confirmed. Taking time but things are starting to pick up pace and coming together.

10 Aug 2025 11:56:01
Decent signing that, even if he is getting on. Now Beto will get some service ?.
31 Jul 2025 18:39:55

31 Jul 2025 21:12:14
Definitely.

Think Bigmac has just bought himself a new laptop.
31 Jul 2025 18:31:31
Alright I have had a Lot to say and opinions about pace being our way forward and I know everyone is a bit down but I am signing off by stating this there is not that many great defences out there and we have a good one and it can get even stronger keeping Jb has give us something great to build on so let's not panick buy let's think of our qualities and add to it sensible with pace power and ability to win matches not buy just anyone or be held to randsom by dicks who just want to fleece our owners. Owners we are very grateful off ciao.

I'm not naming past Everton greats as most of you know who they are but let's just say they were not transfer records, gritty and great pace these technical players were up against can be beat with pace you can take their legs away that way, we want to make an impression in our new home and not be a laughing stock, we can thrive if the side has great pace otherwise we might as well has Martinez pass from the back all knowing it ain't really going anywhere, no we must have great pace I would sign a whole team of youth as long as we go for speed with thebit of quality end product etc, Atalanta always do it that way the likes of Armstrong etc just let them go for it time to get radical.

Big Dunc £4m was a record fee just mentioning it for a friend ?.
31 Jul 2025 17:15:43
My analysis is if we were to go all out for one particular player it's a no brainier for me it's macatee as the quality there, the speed pace and technical he should be in if this ambition is really there From us, he fits the profile we say we want to built sort of a Brighton and we could increase his value over a period, chaps that's why I'm saying does are director no what he is doing?, he should be inthe Allen ball connection and all that?

Brilliant Nick good to have you back mate.
28 Jul 2025 18:54:56
Ha ha ha well done nick,
29 Jul 2025 21:43:26
That's his name though isn't it? Got two Scots named David in my family and that's how they are addressed too. More things to get stressed about with our club than what people call the manager!
19 Jul 2025 17:16:43
Doesn't bode well does it, Accrington draw and lose to Blackburn eh. All I hear is it's a friendly game or games. Doesn't give much credibility when we are after quality players, who is wanting to come given that's one of the strongest teams we have.

Could be worse Newcastle got pumped 4 nil by celtic a so called Sunday league pub team there only friendlys.
22 Jul 2025 06:26:29
What worries me is the lack of goals from open play. It’s been a problem for years. There were signs Moyes had sorted that when he came in but we are falling into old habits again. I’m hoping we score a few when in America. Also hope we sort the RW. If we can balance out the front line, we might have a chance of scoring more regularly.
22 Jul 2025 15:42:26
We have just beat Port Vale 2-1. We've turned the corner.
22 Jul 2025 16:10:17
As long as it isn’t two penalties Brass. We desperately need someone who can convert from open play and players who can supply chances to score.
27 Jul 2025 17:02:04
Or maybe not.
