Do any of the eds know which centreback were after?

I'm guessing a loan for tomori is off the table now, after lampards comments

Thanks for any info.

{Ed002's Note - Fikayo Tomori (CB) Rennes are keen but Everton have made a very good offer. Chelsea may block a move depending on departures - and there certainly won't be any option to buy.
Marcos Senesi (CB) alternate DC replacement for Sevilla, interest from Leeds, Everton and Atalanta - he would be a good solution.
Jean-Clair Todibo (CB) will be sold with a buy-back clause and Barcelona want €25M - plenty of interest as Barcelona do not see him as good enough - was available in January and is being offered around to clubs including Everton who may well look to push for him, Manchester United and Inter. Milan have had talks but concerns over injuries saw a much lower bid made and rejected. General interest from RBL, Bayer Leverkusen and Southampton but no discussions. His agent has offered him to Napoli as a Kalidou Koulibaly replacement but they have their mind set on another. Roma are being messed around over another player and have turned to declare an interest in J-CT but it looks like that issue will be resolved - so they will drop interest. Everton should make a reasonable €20M offer and see where is takes them.
Gleison Bremer (CB) Torino player who offers a cheap option - they may even accept a loan. Need to confirm a WP would be available.
Nikola Maksimovic (CB) Napoli are willing to sell NM rather than have him run down his contract. They have held discussions with Fiorentina and Roma have declared an interest but are dealing with their takeover still. Ancelotti knows the player well and could look to taking him to Everton. Inter have considered him as a MIlan Skriniar replacement but he is not top of their list.}

ED02 do you think we where going to wait til later in the window to bring a defender in or has Braithwaite and Holgates injuries added to minas very poor showing last weekend which you could see had Carlos fuming forcing us to act quicker.

{Ed002's Note - I cannot answer questions about the timings of when transfers might be completed.}
