Four deals linked to Everton this week

Image result for everton football clubTen days into the January transfer window and the gossip keeps on flowing but who have Marco Silva’s side been linked with today?

Marcel Brands last night dampened any hopes of Everton signing anyone this month, but since when did that stop the paper talk?

Marco Silva spent big money last summer – including £40million on Brazilian ace Richarlison – and will not be handed a substantial kitty this month.
However, that may not stop several stars from leaving Goodison Park including a first-team regular who has attracted interest from a Champions League giant.
Express Sport has rounded up which Everton transfer deals could be finalised in the next week.

OUT: Idrissa Gueye (to PSG)
French outlet Telefoot report that Gueye is close to agreeing personal terms with PSG if they can agree a fee with Everton.

The Toffees will be highly reluctant to let their star midfielder go but it could be a fascinating week if Gueye begins to force a move.

PSG are on the lookout for a battling midfielder with Adrien Rabiot in talks with Barcelona and Bayern Munich and expected to leave imminently.

Rabiot’s departure could take place any day, meaning PSG will step up their efforts to source a replacement in January.

OUT: James McCarthy (to West Brom)
Reports from the Express & Star in the Midlands suggest McCarthy is attracting attention from West Brom despite concerns over his fitness.

The Daily Mail have also tipped Aston Villa to join the race for his signature while Bournemouth have also been credited with an interest.

McCarthy has recently returned from a double leg fracture and has fallen way down in the pecking order at Goodison Park meaning he wouldn’t need to be replaced.

 

IN: Andre Gomes (from Barcelona)
The midfield maestro has earned rave reviews about his displays since cracking into the first team at Everton.

The Toffees can reportedly make the loan deal permanent for around £22m according to Mundo Deportivo.

Fans will be crying out for the club to act following an impressive start to life on Merseyside.

OUT: Oumar Niasse (to Crystal Palace)
The former Hull striker enjoyed a mini-renaissance period in his Everton career last season after a disappointing start.

However, Marco Silva has used him sparingly in 2018/19 and the Evening Standard claim he could sign for Palace on loan or even on a free permanent transfer.

A deal could progress quickly if a formal offer is received with Everton keen to clear his salary from their wage bill.
