Everton Transfer Rumours

04 Jun 2026 11:49:47
Bardghji from Barcelona being linked, left footed right winger. What do you know about this one Blue Nose mate?

04 Jun 2026 13:12:38
I can see him ending up at Leeds GB.

A lot of hype around him a few years back after he broke into the Copenhagen team at just 16, becoming their youngest ever player. He did go on to score the very next game, which naturally earned rave reviews.

I remember watching them in Europe where he was playing with Rasum Hojlund and our very own Manc slayer - Bryan Oviedo. However, he was still very raw then.

I watched them again a couple of years later against United, as we had a strong interest in Elyounoussi (ex-Saints player) . Elyounoussi actually played very well and scored, but Bardghji certainly caught the eye and all the attention after scoring the winner in a 4-3 goal fest.

He then got incredibly unlucky and did his ACL. He did recover well though and came back into the 1st team like he hadn't been away. So much so that Barca decided to bring him in. I am not sure if they brought him in because they thought he would make a big impact on the 1st team, or whether it fit in with their plans at the time because of their financial issues and also realising that he would represent a low risk signing that would more than likely represent an eventual profit.



He has been used at Barca but not huge amounts. In his defence, he is behind arguably the best winger in world football.

In terms of him as a player.

Left-footed attacking winger who primarily operates from the right flank.

Like most modern wingers now, he looks to cut inside and get shots away or feed players through on goal.

His diminutive frame and low-centre of gravity allow him to excel with close control, quick feet and ability to beat defenders in one-on-one situations.

He is comfortable carrying the ball at speed and receiving possession in tight spaces, capable of creating chances for teammates as well as finishing moves himself - so a bit of an all-rounder in that regard.

He is still only 20 though, mate, and I doubt this and his physical presence would make him a Moyes signing.

04 Jun 2026 13:33:47
Good stuff, mate, Brian Oviedo, that's a blast from the past, mate.

04 Jun 2026 14:26:40
Would take him over Mykolenko now mate hahah!

04 Jun 2026 14:40:16
So would I. He sounds very good, mate.

04 Jun 2026 15:49:58
If he doesn't get back and defend, then Moyes won't want him.

04 Jun 2026 16:23:45
Always the negative, mate.

04 Jun 2026 00:04:23
Seen earlier that apparently we have a golden opportunity to potentially sign Dusan Vlahovic on a free transfer. Would like him to come but personally don't see it happening.

{Ed025's Note - i would still take him Sean..

04 Jun 2026 07:37:28
Should have got him on loan last year. Think he would be out of our range for wages.

{Ed025's Note - if we get rid of Hinge and Bracket that could fund his wages Dev..

04 Jun 2026 11:52:50
Didn't a Juve CEO say he wants a massive pay rise despite already being on like £300k a week?

04 Jun 2026 12:42:44
As a free agent, he can demand crazy wages, will probably end up somewhere like Turkey or Saudi Arabia on 500k a week. He'd be great but I can't see this one happening personally.

03 Jun 2026 19:07:05
Reading that Borussia Dortmund are after Iroegbunam, right price let him go.

03 Jun 2026 19:58:01
Straight swap for Schlotterbeck.

03 Jun 2026 14:16:53
Got this from a reliable source who works in the club.
Hackney: his preference is to move to us and the club are discussing personal terms with him at the moment. This is not believed to be an issue. The fee is believed to be in/around 15m. It is expected that he will be brought in to compete for a midfield role but not as an immediate starter. As well as him, the club also hope to sign a defensive midfielder (No6) , but no names mentioned as yet.
Ndiaye: there is no fallout with Ndiaye and he has not asked for a move. The club have offered him a new five-year deal which would make him one of the highest paid players at the club. The issue is that his agency want a release clause (around 40m) . Everton have said no to this.

This doesn’t mean that they won’t agree to a clause, but not at the fee his agency want.
Currently the club have received no offers for the player. The club are relaxed about the situation given the player still has three years left on his current contract. Talks will continue after the player returns from the World Cup and the club are confident of a positive outcome.
Wan Bissacka has been offered to the club; no decision has been made yet. Asking price is around 15m. He is currently two years into a bumper seven-year deal at West Ham on 90k a week.
We have scouted Gu’ela Dou’e from Strasbourg extensively over the last twelve months as another right back option. We like him, but no offer has been made as yet.

03 Jun 2026 15:13:06
Great info Bmd.

Getting the two of them in would be smart business. Not only does it give us some depth to a position where we didn't even have a credible starter, but it gives us two completely different profiles. Doue can also play further forward and on the opposite flank - very talented player, much like his brother.

{Ed025's Note - if we could get his brother BN...then we would be talking mate.. :)

03 Jun 2026 15:13:51
For what it's worth, my brother (who is a West Brom supporter) watches a lot of Championship football and tells me that he considers Hackney to be the best player he has seen in the Championship this season.

03 Jun 2026 15:14:27
Thanks for that Bmd, good news mate, not all doom and gloom as some seem to like.

{Ed025's Note - i dont think the guys like to moan GB but after the really crappy end to the season has left most of us feeling a bit flat mate..

03 Jun 2026 16:14:47
Agree Ed mate but after all the negativity it's good to read some good news

{Ed025's Note - if its not just pie in the sky GB i will get my mojo back mate.. :)

03 Jun 2026 16:26:27
Just hope we will get a decent window, mate, and get them in early for a change.

{Ed025's Note - that would be great GB...if it happens mate..

03 Jun 2026 19:52:55
Have not seen a lot of Dibling, but then he's not played much, to be honest. Have not been impressed.
But before we cut him loose (which would not get back too much of the ridiculous fee) , think we should put him out on loan, if he comes good, we can bring him back into the squad, or sell and get more of our money back.

03 Jun 2026 20:03:45
Hopefully, Dibling gets some confidence back and has a great pre season with a decent RB backing him up, and makes it impossible not to start him. Fingers crossed.

03 Jun 2026 22:54:21
If your reliable source is Moyes BMD, tell him to stop messing about and play players in their best position and sort out his substitute phobia!

All in all, that post is the best I've read in ages. If we announce Hackney first day of the window and a few others soon after, I'd be feeling pretty positive for the first time since we beat Chelsea.

Just hope that Moyes plays the players he gets that are in form in their positions and not be so bloody stubborn.

03 Jun 2026 23:17:45
DM stated in last few pressers Dibling was getting into the workload and showing a lot of progress. He also stated the kid will benefit from a pre season and had no plans to loan him out. It's only his fee that's making for all the impatience. He has plenty of time. I don't expect to see him flourish for another season yet. But do expect him to make a lot more appearances, especially in the 2nd half of coming season.



As for quick business? Well sure, these Championship players should be OK but a WC year always hinders the speed clubs make signings. Usually a log jam and then a crazy last 2 weeks.
I expect us to still have plenty to do once the season kicks off. I expect a lot of moaning.

03 Jun 2026 23:34:02
Thank you, BMD, great info there too, fingers crossed your source is bang on the money mate.

03 Jun 2026 12:14:06
Imran Louza from Watford supposed to be in talks with us.

03 Jun 2026 14:08:05
Another one I would take GB. We lack footballers in this side. I know the Championship may as well be a different sport, but in terms of ability on the ball, he is head and shoulders above most of ours, mate - but then again, that isn't hard.

03 Jun 2026 14:15:47
Agree, mate, and a lot cheaper than Hayden Hackney, maybe we get them both in. Good news that we are trying to get business done early, mate.

03 Jun 2026 15:10:47
Absolutely GB. CL guaranteed next season, mate!

{Ed025's Note - lets see if we get any of these new players before we start thinking CL BN, being linked means nothing at the moment mate..

03 Jun 2026 15:41:05
Yeah right I wish. 😂😂

03 Jun 2026 16:50:01
Ed025, I thought you of all people on here would have sensed my sarcasm there mate 😂

Even if we got the players we have been linked with, I wouldn't be committing to such a statement.

The team needs gutting but I do believe that it can be dramatically improved with the right recruitment mate.

{Ed025's Note - i thought you were being ultra-positive BN, we do need a really good window to get the supporters back on side mate..

03 Jun 2026 19:26:07
I sit between ultra-positive and doom and gloom Ed.

Let us see what this "best in class" team can do ey.

I must say I am preferring the links to players in this window though.

{Ed025's Note - i like some of those mentioned BN but dread some of the ones who are either coming for a last pay day or who i believe are just not good enough mate..

03 Jun 2026 22:56:43
I think I sit either at ultra positive or at doom and gloom, BN. Can't seem to find a middle ground.

Couple of good signings and we could really get a good run in a cup and league next year.

02 Jun 2026 21:34:13
If we do sign Hayden Hackney (fingers crossed) , where would he play? Does he replace Gueye in midfield alongside Garner? Hackney isn't an outright ball winner, so does Garner get pushed forward? Or to right back? Does he get sold?

Feel we still need a proper defensive midfielder (or number 6 for those who are into that sort of thing) and even though Tim has improved, he’s simply not good enough once he wins the ball back to keep it.



We do have good options already, KDH shouldn’t be behind the striker, it should be Dibling in my
incredibly humble opinion. But Moyes likely won’t do that.

Thoughts on where Hackney plays and do we need another midfielder regardless?

02 Jun 2026 22:32:39
Wouldn't be surprised if they sell Tim to be honest. There was some interest in him in January, I think he's a good player but could probably make a few quid on him. Like, you still think we need a replacement for Gueye?

03 Jun 2026 00:06:37
Need to get away from thinking about just the starting 11 imo. The game has moved on, and most clubs have, certainly the ones that finish well in the league.

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to bring players that are at the level to start, off the bench to replace other starters e.g. Hackney for Garner or Hackney for KDH.

03 Jun 2026 09:49:52
Drop KDH back where he likes to play, and play Hackney behind the donkeys.

03 Jun 2026 09:58:11
Hackney would be a great signing, but if we're talking about midfielders who can replace Gana, I'd also be looking at Sander Berge (Fulham) , Issa Doumbia (Sporting CP) and Ngal'ayel Mukau (Lille) .

Berge would be the ready-made option for me. He's got plenty of Premier League experience, a real physical presence and looks the type of midfielder who could take over a lot of Gana's defensive responsibilities straight away.

Doumbia is only 22 but looks ready for the next step.

He impressed at Venezia before earning his move to Sporting, and he's got the athleticism and aggression to thrive in a more demanding league.

Mukau would be my long-term pick. The Lille midfielder has a high ceiling and all the tools to become a top player, but I'd see him as one for the future rather than someone you'd expect to replace Gana immediately.

If we could bring in Hackney plus one of those three, I'd be pretty happy with our midfield options going into next season.

03 Jun 2026 12:07:34
I think Berge is a decent player but Fulham would want £30 to £40 million for him to account for losing their mainstay in the middle of the park. He is very conservative in his play and rarely loses the ball which is good but I think there are better DM's out there for me. Certainly better DM's that can replicate what Gana offers us. Gana beats him in nearly every metric on the pitch, other than ariel duels and passing completion and he is 36.

Doumbia has just gone to Lisbon so obviously rules him out and Mukau, as talented as he is, has been deployed right midfield more than DM for Lille this season.

Dismissing the players that are likely out of our reach e.g. Morten Hjulmand, the best like for like Gana replacements, that being a relentless ball pressing/winning 6 would be Morten Frendrup or Kaishū Sano.

Both would jump at the chance to come to us and both would represent decent value in todays ridiculous market.

Frendrup is an elite ball winner. Like Gueye, he consistently ranks near the top of his respective league for tackles, interceptions, ball recoveries and duels won.

He reads danger early and attacks loose balls aggressively. He's not a reckless tackler either with excellent timing. He is top class at stepping into passing lanes before opponents receive the ball. Wins second balls consistently and has the ability to transition his team from defence to attack.

His engine is absolutely ridiculous and covers an obscene amount of ground during the 90 mins. He has also played in a multitude of positions - CM, LB, RB, WB which gives him a top level footballing IQ, much like our very own Jimmy Garner.

Kaishū Sano is very similar to Frendrup in his strengths. He covered the most ground in the Bundesliga last year and ranked amongst the leaders of tackles, interceptions and ball recoveries.

Perhaps where they differ is that Sano seems a little more technical on the ball. He is incredibly press resistant. He has great awareness, so rarely gets caught dwelling in possession and he uses his low-centre of gravity to turn out of tight situations and come away with the ball to start attacks.

Neither of them are ball-playing DM's in the mould of your Adam Wharton but they are there to do a job and that is to hunt the ball down and win it back, give it to the better players and give the team shape.

I would jump at the chance to get either of these two. Brentford appear to be interested in Sano (as of this week) so that should give you a good indicator to how good this fella is.

We will probably dither and stick with Gueye and Tim.

02 Jun 2026 08:37:32.
Hayden Hackney’s preference is to join Everton. Talks between us & Middlesborough will follow soon to iron out a transfer of the player.

02 Jun 2026 10:35:00
This lad is top drawer and would be a great signing. Young, already one of if not the best player in the Championship, with scope to improve and increase his value. Exactly the type of business we should be doing. Let's hope this comes off and we don't drag our heels like we normally do!

02 Jun 2026 11:31:18
Apparently Carrick wants him as well at the Man Utd, but player's preference is us. As you say, let's hope this deal doesn't get scuppered, as he was player of the Championship last season and would be a real coup of a signing for us, as any other clubs are in for him too.

02 Jun 2026 12:15:45
Would be a good move for us, hope we can get him in.

02 Jun 2026 16:57:36
Anyone know what price Middlesbrough are asking? I wouldn't go above £30 million myself.

02 Jun 2026 17:30:34
I think he's in the final year of his contract. If that's the case, I would imagine that it would be in the region of £15-£20m.

02 Jun 2026 17:31:12
No idea on the price but he's good on the ball, physically capable and still only 23. We either get our money back, or a big profit in the future. Or we keep a good solid player for 8-9 years.

I think £30m or a bit over in today's market is absolutely fine. I'm a big fan of this signing if it happens.

02 Jun 2026 18:18:05
I can't remember the poster who shouted this transfer up a while back, so forgive me, but he seemed to know a great deal about Hackney.

Mr Poster or whoever else, can you summarise the lad up and his main attributes for us posters that don't know too much about him.

02 Jun 2026 19:08:24
I'm not the poster but it's pretty obvious that he's a ball carrying midfielder. Strong too. Can see a pass and loves a shot at goal. Box to box and can tackle too. Pretty much the real deal for the Championship. Just remains if that can transfer to the PL.

02 Jun 2026 21:06:15
Wouldn't it be refreshing to wrap the deal up in the first day or two of the window..

03 Jun 2026 07:34:19
Probably get this one done, then on the last day we will be looking for a rightback.

01 Jun 2026 19:41:04
I've been told Ndiaye has asked to leave because he doesn't get on with Moyes. We shall see.

01 Jun 2026 20:03:27
I wish it was the other way round lol.

01 Jun 2026 20:16:09
Quality, Nick!

01 Jun 2026 20:23:04
I'm not a fan of Moyes (shocking I know) , but I'll take this with a grain of salt as I've only seen this rumour from an unreliable Twitter account.

But even if so, Ndiaye was embarrassing towards the end of the season, no effort, missing easy chances.

01 Jun 2026 20:45:59
He certainly looked like he'd checked out in the last several games.

{Ed025's Note - he was poor since AFCON JB..

01 Jun 2026 20:51:40
I was told off a mate who is quite reliable.

01 Jun 2026 21:00:18
If it is true and he wants to leave, get him out the door as quick as possible.

01 Jun 2026 21:15:59
If Moyes is causing our best players to leave, I think it's best if Moyes goes.

01 Jun 2026 21:37:31
Ndiaye is a flair player who likes to attack, probably sick of being asked to defend.

02 Jun 2026 21:07:53
I wonder if Moyes pulled him up for the poor performances in the run-in..

I'd like him to stay and Moyes to be a little more attacking. Sadly, a leopard doesn't change its spots.

03 Jun 2026 09:26:04
I have seen rumours that Ndiaye has not asked to leave. Details circulating are that the club offered a pay rise from his £45k per week, his agent asked for a release clause in the contract, which is why the new deal is unsigned at the moment.
When I was on a stadium tour, they mentioned he is tied into a 5 year lease on a box at the stadium, so has 4 years left on that.


And also is mid renovation on his house.
That’s not to say those aspects would keep him, but I am sure they would play on his mind.

31 May 2026 16:51:21
Tristan Crama from Millwall being linked £20 million for the RB, BlueNose you have any info on him mate, thanks.

31 May 2026 18:49:56
Lescott playing in Soccer Aid still has more pace than Tarky and Keano.

31 May 2026 19:50:41
Rooney would still get in up top for us too.

31 May 2026 20:23:51
Yep for sure.

31 May 2026 21:53:44
Tristan Crama is a 6ft 4" Centre back who can play rb. He is slow and physical. He hasn't done anything to say he's worth anywhere near £20m, and at best he is a mid tier Championship player. He is definitely not at the calibre to be ready for the Premier League yet.

31 May 2026 23:19:37
OS has summed that up pretty well tbf, GB. We were linked with him earlier in the season. If we were going for any of their side, I would rather us go for Femi Azeez or Mihailo Ivanovic than Crama, GB. They were the stand outs from whenever I watched Millwall.

01 Jun 2026 07:18:03
Cheers mate.

01 Jun 2026 09:35:16
Didn't he get in the Championship team of the season? I don't know anything about him, but that would suggest he had a good season surely and must be decent?

01 Jun 2026 09:59:36
Decent at that level, yes.

01 Jun 2026 14:12:28
Bowen was only decent at that level until given a chance! Everyone on here wants young players, but then when we get linked co plain they aren't good enough!! I haven't seen him, but am loathe to trust anyone on here cos everyone waxed lyrical over Dibling and I said after watching him he was completely overrated. Think I was right.

01 Jun 2026 14:50:38
Sorry, but there is no way you have seen enough of Dibling to make that statement. Tell me, what's his best position?

01 Jun 2026 15:42:41
I think Rlchris was referring to him playing for Southampton before we wasted a king's ransom for him.
His best position is on front seat of a bus back to Southampton.

01 Jun 2026 16:13:50
To be fair, I saw enough of him at Southampton (for God knows why, I watched a load of their games last season) and he was absolutely superb. I was desperate for us to sign him, and that's why I'm of the firm opinion that is Moyes who has ruined him, and not our scouts getting it wrong.

Re: Crama, a Millwall supporting mate says he's quality, but it doesn't mean he's the solution to our problems. I've said a million times that it's not about buying good players, it's about buying the right ones, and buying another 6'4 player and shoving him at fullback is far from the right decision.



Plus, side note, one of the main reasons Dibling has been so poor for us is the complete lack of support he has had from O'Brien. An inverted winger needs an overlapping fullback, if for no reason other than to distract defenders.

01 Jun 2026 16:18:55
Thanks lhrblue, you are spot on. Assuming it was you, BMD, who slaughtered me on here when I called out the lad was massively overrated and that we were getting our pants pulled down? I saw the same as you last season, and it was enough to know he wasn't worth £10m let alone £40m! There is a reason not one other club showed an interest.

01 Jun 2026 16:58:11
There is literally a site called Transfer Feed that collates all the rumours relating to a specific player.

I will read off a list of the clubs interested in Dibling around this time last year. Not really any big clubs though tbf.

City
Porto
Liverpool
Utd
Chelsea
Newcastle
Forest
West Ham
Spurs
Bayern
Dortmund
Leipzig
Everton.

01 Jun 2026 17:15:11
1- I don't slaughter anyone. 2- You didn't answer the question.
So I will do it for you. Dibling's best position is playing behind the striker with a free role to roam. Not stuck out on the wing. I will agree though, having O'Brien behind him didn't help, but again that's not O'Brien's fault, it's having a manager who seems clueless to his players' strengths.

01 Jun 2026 20:18:58
I have a great deal of sympathy for OBrien. He played the whole season out of position for the club, because they totally failed in the close season to sign a RB.
Must have been demoralising for the lad at times.


Demonstrates the attitude of a real team player.
I, for one, hope he is given a run in his natural position next season so we can have a proper look at him.

31 May 2026 16:35:45
A new name in the form of a central defender, Jayden Oosterwolde, is being heavily linked. Anyone know much about him?

31 May 2026 17:11:35
He's 25 so probably a bit too young for Moyes.

31 May 2026 18:50:17
Fast as anything.

31 May 2026 22:02:40
Jayden Oosterwolde is a 6ft 2" defender with exceptional pace. He is naturally left footed and comfortable at both left back and left centre back. He is known to be rather rash and pick up some unnecessary bookings.

He is also quite inconsistent with his positional play. That being said, he could be good enough to have a place in our team, but he had a serious ACL injury not too long ago, which is a big issue.

01 Jun 2026 10:01:09
We already have a few inconsistent defenders.

01 Jun 2026 22:33:47
Oosterwolde ACL was back in 24 and he's notched up 35 domestic games this season and 12 in Europe, so I would feel he's recovered well.
Not lost his pace either, but would agree he plays on the edge, so bookings can be an issue.
He's a good ball player, comfortable bringing the ball out, and has also played midfield and left back, actually a good overlapping LB with his pace, which also helps with his recoveries.


Also a good passer and can hit a decent cross in.
I feel he would be a useful addition.
