Anthony Gordon

Think it's just to put pressure on Gibson for Spence.

Since when did they owe us £20M for Dele? Would love to hear some ITK on this as it seemed they owe us nothing as it stands?

Believe it’s £10m after 20 appearances, which is another 9, and £20m if something like 40 appearences

so they owe us nothing today but if he’s in Lampard’s plans they likely owe £10m-£20m

 

[WiganSpur]

It's not just £10m though is it, it's writing off any Alli fees too. Pretty sure there's 10m to be paid soon for Alli in a few games time and wouldn't surprise me if there was another attainable £10m due next season, and if I remember correctly the total package could rise to £40m. So in reality this bid is probably more like £20-25m.

 

[Woodyy]

tbf the more attacking players we buy off them the more they're gonna have to start Dele

Doubt it matters if he’s in Lampards plans, there’ll be something in small print whereas after a certain time they gotta cough up money for him, or if they sell him they pay X amount. No way Levy would’ve let Dele go with risk of getting only £10m for him or even less.
I reckon that Gordon price is true, it’s so ludicrously low there has to be something in it. Maybe it’s to allow them to owe nothing for Dele and we’re being creative and giving them Winks on loan with a really low obligation to buy.

If this deal allows Everton to log the sale as £10m + £40m then that's a £50m profit in terms of FFP which presumably addresses their financial challenges. That's the only way I think this could be a goer.

I’m sure it’s 20 starts for Dele.

So far he’s only started one league game for them

 

[HildoSpur]

Would be very happy with this but just can't see Everton selling

We should go in for Adama Traore if we want to do that.

 

[ardiles]

Why? different positions and no limit on the number of promising young players we can sign at a decent price.

It’s about getting Gibson to lower his price for Spence.

 

[panoma]

Such a misleading title just to anger Evertons fanbase.

If they will owe us 20 mill for Alli then the fee is 30 millions and not 10 like the title suggests...

Are we not under a new year now for FFP though? So they have 12 months to sort their finances.

 

[Derryank]

I wonder what triggered the £20m for Dele because he has hardly played.

Helping them stay in the Premiership!!

His second half performance against Palace kept them up!!

He was the old Dele that evening at Goodison.....great to watch.

Time for the Toffees to pay up

I don’t think that would make any difference, he obviously has a price in mind and also one is a prem player the other a championship one so hard to compare

 

[worcestersauce]

£30 million for Anthony Gordon, that's a hefty lump for a 21 year old non international player but my view is he's a cracker so I'm ok with it.

 

[Pochie]

Curious. I wonder how this will work out? Sounds like it could be creative.

 

[kursaal]

I would love us to get this lad. Everton may say they have more intention of parting with him but what does the player and agent feel? The possibility of playing under a world renown coach and learning at the feet of Kane & Son etc would test any young player's loyalty.

There would be plenty of opportunities for him with the amount of games we will be facing this coming season.

In all likelihood Everton will be facing another mediocre season, at best. Gordon would hopefully relish the chance of being involved in the Champions League, however small his role may be at first.

It would also enhance his possibilities of making the full England squad, if he showed the enthusiasm and performances he turned in for a poor Everton side.

Even more so if we've suggested a RWB role where a possible starting place could be up for grabs. That'd be a massive opportunity for a young player.

 

[daryl hannah]

I’ve just watched 6 minutes of Gordon being ineffective. I don’t get it. Can someone explain why we’re looking at this guy more than just that Everton were in financial trouble?
