Leicester got 70 for Fofana and 80 for Maguire and how long ago was that? Is Branthwaite inferior to those two? Palace have rejected those types of bids for Guehi.
If a club wants him they’ll have to pay but as Moyes said they better bring a big bag of cash.
I don’t know why people think Everton let players go on the cheap.
50 mill for Stones, a record at the time for a CB I think
90 mill for Lukaku, also a record before the Neymar deal distorted the entire market that summer
Even Rooney was a record for a teenager at the time
Richarlison went for 60 mill and that was with us over a barrel for PSR

Our fans will complain as they always do, but in reality it will be seen as a good price for him.
