AliousEverton, seeking reinforcements in midfield this summer, may seize the opportunity to sign a player they once pursued for £65 million, now available on a free transfer.
Andre Gomes bid farewell to Everton fans with a heartfelt message as his six-year stint at Goodison Park came to an end.
Meanwhile, Dele Alli’s contract is also set to expire, although he will remain with the club during his ongoing rehabilitation from a groin injury.
Amidst rumors of Amadou Onana’s potential departure and his ambition to secure a move following the European Championships, manager Sean Dyche and director of football Kevin Thelwell are eyeing midfield reinforcements.
Manchester City’s Kalvin Phillips, a player admired by Dyche, is reportedly a loan target.
Thelwell emphasizes the need for shrewd trading, especially as Everton awaits potential new ownership after a failed takeover bid.
Despite his hefty price tag upon joining Tottenham, Tanguy Ndombele’s tenure has been disappointing, resulting in loan spells away from the club.
With Ndombele potentially available for free despite having a year left on his contract, Everton may consider taking a chance on him, reminiscent of their pursuit of Phillips following his struggles at Manchester City.
Under Dyche’s preseason regimen, players like Dominic Calvert-Lewin have thrived, suggesting that Ndombele, previously criticized for weight issues, could benefit from a similar approach. Everton has been monitoring Ndombele’s progress since 2018, indicating a long-standing interest in the midfielder.
