We're not gona help them in their financial crisis with all these loan moves are we? Moyes said any player coming in would be on loan and the most realistic option then is Donovan when we do one more dynamic winger. if the player's rating is 7 million,for us its as if he's a 14 million player considering how less money we've got
 
I had never heard of this player before today, Holtby, German born, is with Schalke in the bundesliga and is 19 years old and could be one for the future.

Supports Everton of all things, as does his father, good men. :)
 
Second Shalke player linked in as many days, we must have had a scout at their games and journos are just juggleing names.

They're skint ....they "re-structured their finances" (consolidated their debt) back in November to the tune of 25 million Euro's. So it's no wonder they're looking to offload
 
Lewis Holtby anyone remember this kid:

The Evertonian wunderkind captaining Germany under 21's could yet be eligible to represent England.

Lewis Holtby is the 20-year-old starlet setting the Bundesliga alight this season at unlikely leaders of the Bundesliga, FSV Mainz.

On loan from Schalke, the wide midfield man has earned plaudits all over Europe for maturity at the top level.

Holtby is of dual nationality, his dad is an Evertonian soldier from Liverpool who met Lewis'German mother while stationed Mönchengladbach.

And despite wearing the armband for Germany at U-21 level, the youngster could still be subject to an approach from Fabio Capello.

Holtby is reported to be an avid Evertonian who has dreamed of playing in England ever since his dad "infected him with the Everton virus" at the age of 5.

If Capello and the FA are going to lure the goal-scoring midfielder to England, they are likely to have to act fast with the German national squad becoming a successful greenhouse for the development of exciting talent in the ilk of khedira and Ozil.
 
Watched him on Saturday for Mainz. Has skill, but is slow as molasses and out of shape. I think he left the match with a groin injury.
