AliousOnana’s Cryptic Response to Dobbin’s Everton Exit
Everton midfielder Amadou Onana has raised eyebrows with his Instagram reaction to Lewis Dobbin’s transfer to Aston Villa. Dobbin, an academy product, confirmed his move on social media (23 June), sharing an image of his contract signing alongside Villa’s president of football operations, Monchi.
Onana’s Unusual Comment
In response to Dobbin’s post, Onana simply commented “Scary” followed by a heart-eyes emoji. This brief but intriguing reaction has sparked speculation among fans, given its ambiguous nature and the fact that it’s an uncommon response to a teammate’s departure.
Transfer Context
The Dobbin-Villa deal is part of a broader arrangement between Everton and Aston Villa, with Tim Iroegbunam moving in the opposite direction for a reported £9 million. This transaction helps both clubs navigate Premier League and Profit and Sustainability Rule (PSR) requirements before the June 30 deadline.
Dobbin’s Everton Career
Dobbin’s limited playing time at Everton (12 Premier League appearances last season, with only one start) suggests the transfer could benefit both the player and the club. His most memorable moment came with a goal against Chelsea.
Speculation Surrounding Onana
Onana’s cryptic comment has led to questions about his own future at Everton. Some wonder if his reaction hints at potential transfer developments for the Belgian international.
Financial Implications
While not a traditional swap deal, the Dobbin-Iroegbunam transfers appear to be financially beneficial for both clubs, helping them meet regulatory requirements while adjusting their squads.
As the transfer window progresses, Everton fans will be watching closely for any further developments, particularly regarding Onana’s status with the club.
