Shocking news;Everton deal collapse finally due to

Everton are ready to offer Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips an escape route from the Etihad Stadium this summer, according to talkSPORT.

The England international spent the second half of the 2023/24 season on loan at West Ham United but struggled to make an impact before being sent back to City early after suffering an injury.

He now has no future at the reigning Premier League champions and Sean Dyche wants to sign the holding midfielder to bolster his Toffees squad after they sold Amadou Onana to Aston Villa in a deal worth £50million.

Toffees can only finance a loan move

The financial situation at Goodison Park is uncertain right now and that means the club are currently only able to offer Manchester City a loan deal to sign the former Leeds United star this summer, according to the report.

Fulham are also interested in doing a deal for Phillips, who has been described as “exceptional” by Pep Guardiola despite his lack of game time with Man City, and they have money to spend after selling Joao Palhinha to Bayern Munich.

Everton have already signed Tim Iroegbunam in midfield, while adding Jack Harrison and Iliman Ndiaye to their attacking options for the new season.

Napoli winger Jesper Lindstrom is also set to join the club from Napoli on loan with an option to buy, which will see the attentions of improving the squad steered towards central midfield.

Andre Gomes was released at the end of the season when his contract expired, while Dele Alli is training with the squad still despite his deal expiring also.
