Afternoon Eds,
Hope you are well.
With Dom and Jared having only cost us around 2.5 million, I imagine with both bringing in pure profit, both will be sold to balance the books for this year.
Say we get approx 60m for Jared and 20m for DCL, that would then all but cover our losses for the year. Would that then allow us to invest any money brought in after that e. g. Onana sale, into the squad or would most of it then go into paying back some of the debts off to R&M and MSP?
Cheers.
{Ed002's Note - The losses have not been declared so we don't know what they will be. Selling players is the solution and there will certainly be interest in Branthwaite, Onana and Calvert-Lewin. Everton can invest anything beyond that but much will depend what happens about a sale - or MSP taking the stadium or half of the club to get control. The debts owed to MSP, 777 Partners etc. are huge - and don't forget a £450M loan from Moshiri.}

Appreciate the info Ed.
It very much looks to be a buyers window this summer, which puts us right at the back of the queue!

{Ed002's Note - Evertron have been looking at options from the Championship but I would not expect significant spending as it stands right now.}

Hopefully Thelwall has been doing his homework and plenty of scouting trips only time will tell i guess but there are decent player's about it's just what the parent clubs are wanting for them as it won't be hard to price us out of a deal.

I am not as familiar with the Championship as I once was, so I only know a few names that I would want us to go after.
I know sometimes you don't wish to get involved with the granular details Ed but do you know who some of those options might be.
There is plenty of talent in the league though. I made calls on here last summer for us to go after young Wharton after being made aware of him by a Rovers fan and watching him myself. I was gutted when Palace nabbed him and I am not one bit surprised he has started his PL career the way he has. He would have been perfect for us.
{Ed002's Note - Could you ask again on Sunday or Monday please BN. I am travelling right now but I have names of a few players the club has been looking at.}

Will try and remember Ed. Much appreciated and safe travels!
{Ed002's Note - Thx.}

Yep felt exact same about Wharton too BlueNose. Been a excellent buy for us.

I've read Carlisle have a 50% sell on clause for branthwaitte. If that's true it will be absolutely massive for them. It will also really put a dent in our income and money to right off against psr.
