Hi ed 02 can you see much transfer business being done this window by Everton. Also seen few things about Mike dean daughters supporting liverpool which isn't true i have friends who support tranmere and know one of his daughter who is season ticket holder at tranmere.

{Ed002's Note - Everything up in the air whist Carlo assesses what he needs but I expect a CB, RW and S will be the priority after a clear out. I have seen a lot of posts about MD's kids - thanks for clearling that up.}

Speaking of a clear out Ed, do you know of any concrete interest in the players we’re looking to move on? .

{Ed002's Note - Maarten Stekelenburg (G)
Lewis Gibson (CB) A couple of minor injuries, and game time has dried up so the player has to consider options which include old club Newcastle, Southampton, Brighton and Rangers.
Djibril Sidibe (RB) Player wants out but Everton would like to take up their option but would need the player to be persuaded to stay - Monaco had Milan saying they will take him on a loan to buy in January and they could look again in the summer. Seville have approached Monaco.
Jonjoe Kenny (RB) Schalke want another loan.
Morgan Schneiderlin (CM) a deal can be done with Nice
Gylfi Sigurdsson (AM) no interest being shown in him
Yannick Bolasie (LW) Sporting wanted to keep him but would prefer another loan if there is an end to the current crisis - this is the result of buying all the LWs in Europe
Cenk Tosun (S) has permission to talk to other clubs but won't be fit until around the New Year - so he will stay for now.
Oumar Niasse (S)
Sandro Ramirez (S) Real Valladolid say Everton have priced him out of a move there
Moise Kean (S) I explained in the summer why Moise Kean was sold to Everton and he has the need for regular game time. He is expected to be hawked around Italy and Roma wanted a loan but would have considered an exchange for Cengiz Under - the interest of two other sides seems to have gone and Roma are now also looking elsewhere.}

I had high hopes of Lewis Gibson, but seems Carlo has been impressed with Braithwaite Who although only 17, appears to be above Lewis in the pecking order.

In regards to Sandro, with the wages we are paying him, I would let the guy go on a free.

To be fair most of the above are going to be loaned out again until their contracts expire, would make sense to try and offload the players on a free and make a fresh start.

The only players I see us having a chance of a transfer fee is Kenny, Tosun, Schneiderlin And Siggerson.

With the centre backs we seem to be linked with, I am suprised we have not gone back in for Kurt Zouma.

Hi ed, thanks for the info mate. Is a striker a priority in terms of adding an additional option or replacing Kean? Thanks mate.

{Ed002's Note - Everton will be fleft with Cenk Tosun (S) who is out until Christmas, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Richarlison once Kean and Niasse leave so something should be done. The club have looked at some youngsters and perhaps even Lozano could be added - but he is really a LW.

Joe Gelhardt (F) Wigan kiddie who has attracted a lot of attention from Premier League sides who had trials with Liverpool and Everton when very young is still being looked at and a lot is thought of him. Spurs and Chelsea have both spoken with Wigan about the player, but both came away thinking he should stay where he is for a year or two to develop - and Chelsea have a much-preferred option. Manchester United have sent an ex-player to look at him and I understand Liverpool, West Brom and Everton have also been scouting him. Leicester have approached Wigan. Another one to perhaps keen an eye on but Everton might not want to sit on their hands too much longer.

Donyell Malen (F/W) rather raw Arsenal reject who has done well at PSV, is well liked if a little moody, but may not be able to make the step up. Rather unlikely if there is interest at the €50M asking price at all. I would doubt PSV would be open to dealing with Everton at anything other than a premium price, but this may well be something coming from an advisor rather than Brands. Very unlikely.

Josh Maja (S) Everton have watched Maya on several occasions this season. Crystal Palace, Celtic and West Ham are also interested in seeing if a deal could be done.

Sardar Azmoun (S) was subject to a very public dispute between Rubin Kazan and Rostov which ended in favour of Rostov in 2016. Stoke had agreed a transfer with Rubin Kazan prior to the CAS proceedings but were aware that it would be difficult to make a case for a work permit. Everton had also looked at the player in the past but, like Stoke, knew the Work Permit situation would be a problem. Whilst playing for RK in 2014 it was suggested that Brendan Rodgers was keen on the player, but I cannot confirm that. Rubin Kazan received a little over €2M in compensation at the ruling of CAS and have no recourse for appeal - eventually signing him on a "free transfer". Marseille watched the player at the start of last season, but he opted for a move to Zenit - and they remain concerned that his best form comes in International sides who are lowly ranked. Antalyaspor, Villareal, Wolves, Liverpool, Leverkusen and Konyaspor all attended matches to watch Azmoun during his last season with Rostov (2018) but the player made clear he did not want to move at that time. Atletico, who won't have had the WP issues dropped some interest they had in the player. There has also been interest from Celtic and Lazio. He had a better time with Zenit last year and Napoli, when CA was coach, took note. Arsenal have watched him as well but their needs are unclear right now. Everton could see Azmoun as a viable Kean replacement but need to make sure a WP could be obtained. I think a move to England is possible.

Mohamed Sankoh (S) young Dutch kiddie of serious interest to Atletico Madrid - additionally Chelsea spoke with Stoke about him when discussing another player and both Spurs and Everton have made enquiries.}
