Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[Marius57]

Judging from Joyce's podcast today, think the Dibling deal is dead and Grealish deal no where near as its been made out. Slightly less Sunshine and happiness today.

Every report in the last few days has made out that it is a really complex deal that won’t be sorted any time soon. Nowhere have I seen it be suggested that it’s near

As well run as Villa on the recruitment side

Aren’t they still struggling with PSR after giving a load of 30+ somethings 4/5 year deals?

Their wages to turnover was at 96% just 6 months ago as well, it’s laughable “journalism”.

Does make sense for everton to let info sbout walking away have had southampton using the media. Grealish will go to the very end of the window as the will get offers most likely a loan. But will be down to whoever pays the most

Keep on reading how ‘complicated’ this deal is. I have no idea why tbh. City will loan him but want the full wage paying.
Maybe they will drop that towards the end of the window.

I don’t really see that as ‘complicated’ tbh.

The club is probably counting on Dibling handing in a transfer request.

Yeah it’s not complicated in that sense, I agree. But it’s certainly all based around the financials of it, (and any obligations etc).

I imagine he has a tonne of clauses in his contract as well relating to appearances, goals, assists, city winning trophies and there will be negotiating around those to do etc

Press turning on the recruitment team.

Go back to Sociedad with £45-50m for Kubo please Everton. We can't let that RW go without a quality player for another season..

I didn't think it was that simple doesn't real Madrid have a 50% sell on clause along with the fact real sociedad already sold some of their better players?

 

[BITTER TWISTED & BLUE]

Sesko wasn’t ‘pushed’ to United. He just knows they are a bigger club as he watched them win the league throughout his childhood.

The media don’t decide transfers between clubs.

If you want all the media attention and adulation - win football matches.

How do we/can we do that?
Win football matches when we aren’t increasing player numbers,never mind player quality?

Is winter Mcginn's secret agent because that's some cringe garbage

Same dont think it is that bad of an offer, not sure why think everton did something wrong is usually the case when buying a player. The selling team usually values them more

bit of a weird comment

everyone knows how important Seamus Coleman is to Everton FC and his value to the dressing room but if someone bid 18 mil for him, i'd personally drive him to the airport

Think there is a release clause of like £55m isn’t there? If we are hitting £50m for Dibling, and kubo was higher on our list, it doesn’t really make sense that we backed out of kubo.
