January Transfer Window 2026

Bournemouth paying £30m for a 19 year old Brazilian striker.
Brazil U20 international who scored 14 goals in 34 Brazilian top‑flight matches last season.
That’s exactly the profile of player we should be looking for - ready now but with significant potential.

maybe worth looking at old targets tyrique george or Yaser Asprilla. George prob would have to buy but maybe get a decent deal and asprilla could try with an option to buy.

They've done great with players, but there's no way to know a 19 year old who has only played in Brazil is ready.

Not sure id bring in a Grealish replacement to be honest (or we will) , id be looking to utilise Dibling more.

We signed a young lad who scored a very respectable number of goals across a couple of European top flight leagues and he has taken half a season to warm up. Other clubs taking similar punts that *might* work out better shouldn't be a stick to beat us with.

Imagine the uproar on here if we sold N'dayie for £60mill and paid £30mill on his replacement

esp if an unheard of player not from the big 3 leagues.

 

[RichCee123]

Forgot about that! Still, would be a nice headline to see Everton signing an exciting talent!

We did in the summer…!

Exactly this. We decided to give Barry a run in the team despite him showing less than nothing initially; why not take that same approach with Dibling (who has shown some flashes of skill) over the second half of the season?

Imagine if we ended the season with a young striker and winger in a rich vein of form and ready to smash it from day 1 next season. Very un-Everton but I'd love it.

I would because whatever does happen feel we need two wingers in the summer if can get a loan if for one would help. Another injury and leavrs us short on natural width, is already a problem with us not having attacking fb. Dibling should be getting time off thr bench anywaye or even starting

 

[RichCee123]

For 60 odd million quid, so they`ve still got a bit of change in their arse pocket for another player too.

It’s being paid over 24 months in equal drips though so who knows!

No need to replace now unless we arent buying in the summer. If we aren’t then yes, we should look now

I just feel we've invested in Dibling and should utilise him mate, if you aren't using assets you already have, then dont come looking for more - that's what id be saying if i was TFG.

Id be on board with another two wingers, ones with pace who could facilitate a quick transition - i wouldn't do it until the summer though mate and id be trying to player trade, i wouldn't pursue Grealsih or a least id have a good long look at alternatives and id also try an flip McNeill to also do it.

I think there was a plan to sell McNeill this window which is now scuppered.

Fair point but they seem to know something because their track record is excellent.
Also I don’t think the Brazil top flight is any more of a gamble than say Germany at the moment.
Outside of Bayern, the quality isn’t great - Dortmund were awful against a limited Spurs team and there have been a number of high profile signings that have bombed in the premier league.

the same Dibling who is behind McNeil in the pecking order ?

for me Dibling has skills but he lacks the real willingness / determination from a 19 year old who needs to still prove himself.
also without a proper overlapping right back he is poor
