Everton Youth Teams Thread

This would be literally the worst case scenario but likely a good move for the lad. Hopefully it's a massive wake up call to all those running the club and they actually learn some lessons from it.

….i think it’s something that’s happening to most clubs and to be perfectly honest, i don’t blame these youngsters and their advisors cashing in on demand for them.

The chances of them making it at top levels is not great, I’m sure he’d be guaranteed a professional contract with us but there’ll be serious big bucks on offer for signing elsewhere. I’m sure we do it to other clubs too.

Wonder what compo we will get…..
Also wonder if anyone at the FA will look to see if there’s been any inducement…..(not holding my breath)
Should I be surprised that when we were pinched for inducement in 2020, we were fined 5 times more then Them…..

Not a lot you can do and we took a keeper off Liverpool last year. And this kid can’t sign a contract untill hes 17,
So city could take him off Liverpool next year

Liverpool supposedly trying to sign chigwada ffs

When somebody mentioned Chelsea earlier I was going to post that even Chelsea have problems keeping the RS away from their players eg Ngumoha . “ Join us and we’ll give you an opportunity to play in the first team , if you’re good enough it’s then up to you “ is a powerful attraction to them. It’s annoying that they do it better than most and then make money out of it eg Gannon-Doak but we’re at it too with less success.

they can give loadsa kids FA cup and league cup minutes and still win, whereas we generally struggle even if we change a senior player for another one due to the attitudes of our managers.
we have no selling points for the most talented youngsters.

I believe we will not be due any compensation as he has deregistered. The standard compo if he has been approached would be around 660k

He can also play youth league games that we can't offer

Are they moving for money, higher quality coaching or a better pathway into the 1st team?

You’re right. As long as Everton offered him another contract by a set date, they should be entitled to development compensation.
I think it was Dan Gosling years ago where Newcastle didn’t have to pay any compensation for because Everton missed the contract offer deadline.

As for Chigwada, as long as he keeps progressing someone will always be willing to pay the fee.
The problem will be if he has a bad injury or gets cut from whoever he signs for. His chances of then staying in elite football will become harder because of the development fee any club lower down the food chain would have to pay.

You have to look at the academy as a business. It’s not full of Evertonians like us. It’s full of kids from all over the North West and beyond, including kids who are RS and have parents facebooks/instagrams full of them in proclaiming life long loves of Klopp, Salah and Van Dijk, only to then become the biggest phony Everton fans going.

I assume we have a Cat 1 academy and this is per year he’s been there (assuming we had actually offered him an extension)

Leave Gordon out of it, besides he was a was long Barca fan.

….i’d be sure the £ is the big attraction and who can blame them for cashing in whilst they can. All clubs will guarantee professional contracts to attract the best talent but that’s been the case since back in my day, there’s a lot of money on offer now for those accepting a move.

I say this a lot but Chelsea , City (now Liverpool have cottoned on) just hoover them all up and offer them basically a football scholorship.
The end game for the young players is not necessarily playing for Liverpool, but it is to get the best coaches and training with the best young players in the country, playing in the best tournaments and having the best exposure to loans etc.

These kids will be happy to move at 16,18 or 21. I see it as abity like how the NBA or NFL are with college players. They graduate and then find there team then

….every summer clubs are discarding the vast majority of youngsters they don’t want, can’t blame those in demand looking for the best deal on offer for a nice nest-egg in life.
