Of course, there's always add ons...

Exactly. Anyone selling a young player nowadays would be daft not to include add ons giving they are selling potential most of the time.

Sterling, Martial, Sanches etc.

The Echo is an awful paper but it will not run a story on something until it knows it's a fact.

The fucking Trinity Mirror shit-stirring rag seemed quite happy to print a pack of lies after the League Cup semi-final.

The Everton Forum. Posted by Davo, the admin/owner of the site. You need to be a member to see it, but it's been reposted on that other blue dipper bastion "Grand Old Team".

Basically, Davo says he's already gone and Everton have their replacement lined up. He says £55-60m.

Ace, ta! I had a look at Grand Old Team but couldn't see sny mention of it.

Yeh Akiva has posted the source, no idea if true but may explain the lack of activity, maybe Everton are holding out for something ridiculous like that.

If it's actually a done deal, then I wonder if they'll wrap it up before Everton's first friendly on Tuesday?

No problem! Have to do a bit of digging in their John Stones thread, maybe five or so pages back.

Edit: here ya go https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/john-stones.77968/page-417

For the love of God, I hope we never attempt to sign Alli from Spurs. They'd probably want something like £100m plus de Bruyne and we'd end up accepting their proposal.

Denayer has taken on the same aura as Guidetti,everyone begged for him and he turned out to not be on the right level

And how exactly do we know that he isn't on the right level? He's never played a competitive match for us. People are writing him off based on one performance where he was no worse than the best CB in the league last season. Issue is that we have no patience with defenders. We didn't have patience with Boateng and we didn't have patience with Savic and both players have excelled since. Let's give Denayer a real chance before writing him off.

Except Denayer has been healthy, played pretty well in 2 loan spells and made a pretty deep national team in the process. Think a lot of people just don't want to mimic Chelsea where we loan forever and sell them before they ever get a real chance.
