The Premier League transfer merry-go-round explained amid £30m interest in Everton star Dominic Calvert-Lewin
Everton FC transfer news: There are multiple moving parts which could see Everton lose a key figure.
The future of Dominic Calvert-Lewin is uniquely tied to multiple other Premier League clubs as Everton ponder a future without their key striker.
Calvert-Lewin, 27, has been a star at the club across the past four years and his eight goals last season were key to beating the drop. In fact, he’s played a significant role in their relegation-escape attempts in recent years but he is currently at risk of leaving the club as his deal expires next summer.
He may still agree a new deal but, as it stands, he has been target by both Manchester United and West Ham as a potential signing. Both clubs are looking at options to bolster their frontline ahead of the new season and a transfer merry-go-round involving three or four players could see the pendulum swing one of a number of ways – and the outcome of Calvert-Lewin’s future will depend upon those.
The Brentford striker is one player who factors into the thinking given he has been a key transfer target for Manchester United. However, their signing of Joshua Zirkzee has dampened any talk in recent weeks.
