‘Admirers at Goodison’: Report claims £30m PL player is now on Everton’s radar
Everton will be looking to sign a right-back in the summer transfer window as the Toffees hope to find a long-term successor to right-back, Seamus Coleman. Fabrizio Romano claimed yesterday that Everton are ‘working’ on signing Max Aarons from Norwich City this summer after Bayern Munich refused to meet the player’s £35m price-tag. Aarons has been on Everton’s radar since he made his first-team breakthrough at Norwich, but the Toffees are also considering other options. According to reports from Liverpool Echo, Carlo Ancelotti has “yet to fully run the rule over the player”, but he is definitely under consideration. Everton are also heavily keen on Brighton’s young right-back Tariq Lamptey. The 20-year-old joined the Seagulls from Chelsea in January 2020 for just £...

Alan Shearer excludes Everton star from his England XI at the Euros, names replacement
While Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford put in a masterclass against Liverpool last weekend and made several Team of the Week selections as a result, Premier League legend Alan Shearer would not include him in England’s starting XI at the European Championship. The 26-year-old made the former striker’s EPL TOTW too, but he does not believe that Pickford has done enough to be in goal for the Three Lions this summer, picking Burnley’s Nick Pope ahead of the Toffees star when asked who his starting XI would be if the European Championship started tomorrow and he was manager. The Everton goalkeeper has been in goal 19 times in the top-flight this season, keeping four clean sheets and conceding 25 goals. Pickford remains manager Carlo Ancelotti’s first-choice despite the great threat that Robi...

‘It’s a no-brainier’: Some Everton fans react to latest link with Leeds target
Everton fans have taken to Twitter to express their reactions after the Toffees were linked with a move for Real Madrid attacker Lucas Vasquez. According to reports from Spanish website Cuatro, two Premier League clubs – Leeds United and Everton – are ready to move for Vasquez who is out of contract at the end of the season. The report claims that Leeds are ready to offer him a big wage package to lure him to Elland Road. The Whites could make him an offer of around five million Euros (around £83,000-a-week) per year, which would be a lot more than what he earns at Madrid. The 29-year-old has made 29 appearances in all competitions for Los Blancos. He has a few months left on his contract in Madrid, and several Everton fans feel that he would be a good signing on a...
Tottenham players unhappy with Jose Mourinho methods
Tottenham Hotspur players are reportedly frustrated with Jose Mourinho’s training methods a scenario which has split the dressing room. Mourinho is under pressure following a return of 12 points from Tottenham’s last 12 Premier League games.

However, The Athletic claims that Mourinho is losing support from some key members of his squad due to the way that he works. The former Manchester United and Chelsea boss is said to have drastically altered the approach taken by predecessor Mauricio Pochettino, whom he replaced in November 2019, by easing the workload on his players – something that has not gone down well ami...
Former Everton defender blasts cheating Liverpool star, time for authorities to act
Mohamed Salah has been blasted for trying to con the match officials during Liverpool’s dismal 2-0 home defeat against Everton on Saturday. The 28-year-old has repeatedly been criticised over his theatrics and he was at it again during the derby game at Anfield. Salah threw himself to the ground in the 57th minute of the game and replays showed that Toffees’ defender Lucas Digne made virtually no contact with the Egyptian. Former Everton star Kevin Ratcliffe hit out at Salah while commentating on the game for talkSPORT. “I can’t understand that,” said Ratcliffe. “If he’s claiming a foul and the referee doesn’t think it’s a foul why isn’t he saying ‘well, you’re diving’. “There was a little bit of contact but there wasn’t as much contact as the dive suggested.” SL View There is no other way...
