Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

Yeah get lost, if we are paying that sort of money then I want Bobb not McAtee.

Neither are £40m players.

Ah well we tried.

That would likely rule out the german sides interested, could probably still negotiate for 25upfront plus some add ons

I say walk away he is not a 40 million pound player. Everton need to get a move in.

Good job we waited hey.... a tactic paying off!

What difference would it have made it wasn’t us holding the deal up, if we could have bought him earlier I’m sure they would.

By most accounts he was approached ages ago and is taking his time

Why must you just see negatives in everything??

Guys if we can up the passive aggressive posts of division and clique likes I feel we can really turn this thread into the needless bloodbath it can be. Let’s up our game as fully grown adults on the internet please.

Said this before but the year left thing is irrelevant for McAtee. Lots of clubs want him and he definitely won’t sit his contract out (he’ll want games in a World Cup year).

Someone will pay £35 million for him.

What about Edon Zhegrova from Lile, right winger 26yrs old want's to leave won't be to expensive. Very tricky fast but not rapid and scores goals.

maybe not, but I find McAtee is probably the weakest of the City youngsters who are in and around the first team tbh

I counted 16 senior players because Tyrer, Armstrong, Iroegbunam and Chermiti are not senior players. To be honest I’m reluctant to count Coleman seeing as he can’t actually physically play football.

That Tim fella is definitely a senior player, he was pretty much first choice til he got injured. The other three three will be loaned out.

German clubs won't pay that fee, he will end up at Forest if the MGW saga ever gets sorted.

….sounds like it’s the player who’s considering his options rather than clubs agreeing a deal.

This is the problem, I don't think we would have.

For statement signings you have a plan going into a window and you go get them. We should have had this lined up at the same time as Barry and once the U21's tournament finished we go get him!

If he is not interested we move on asap.

Again this is all depending on the sources and rumours etc as we will all never know.

But if this is true, then waiting on our top tier targets likes of McAtee or Luiz and then for one reason or another they fall through then typical Everton and it's back to square 1.

We clearly have had no plan or structure to get these much needed 5-8 players in.

I would take any of the City youngsters over him to be fair, I’m sure he will be good but he’s not a standout for the money. Where as I’ve seen all the others have standout games In the actual first team.
