Paul Clement saying deal for Sigurdsson is 'close'.
Imagine things will start to progress now if that's the case.
Tantric transfers. Much more pleasurable when they reach a climax.Both he and Koeman have been saying that for ages
I don't know if it was complete guesswork, but Joey Barton seemed to think it was very close when he was talking to Dickhead Durham on TS yesterday. He's a massive Everton fan who could very well have close contact with the club.I suspect that the Grey Fox info relates to Barkley. IIRC theres been other ITK that says its close in the last few days as well, right? Wouldnt be surprised to see him sign for us next week after the Siggy deal goes through.
It gives money, but not players. So farWill that likely be another sell on fee for Chadli? This is the transfer that just keeps on giving

Everton to finally complete Gylfi Sigurdsson transfer this week — triggering Nacer Chadli and Ross Barkley moves
£50m for Sigurdsson is difficult to justify if I'm honest...Decent moves all round to be perfectly honest.
I completely understand why he's worth 50m to Swansea, they view him as a booked ticket to next years Premier League and all the money that comes with and they aren't crazy to think so. Why he's worth that much to Everton I'm not sure I understand, but I guess it comes down to he's the best player in the league that isn't interesting to any of the clubs above them and whose wage demands they can meet.£50m for Sigurdsson is difficult to justify if I'm honest...
Was only referring to Siggy to Everton, Chadli to Swansea and Barkley to us. And not really paying attention to fees.£50m for Sigurdsson is difficult to justify if I'm honest...
Transfers are not paid in a lump sumIs there a possibility Everton cannot afford Gylfi before they receive the Barkley money?
Maybe they were expecting to have received a bid by now and this could be the hold up. They planned to sell Ross first.
There's one thing spending the Lukaku money, there's another thing spending 50m on a player without recouping the dosh.

I'm pretty sure they are being forced to pay more than they want to for Gylfi, and therefore getting another transfer windfall before closing it would weaken their negotiations further.
