The Everton Thread

Rumor:

Deal for "Well Jel"(Jelavic) has been agreed, medical to take place tomorrow morning and WILL be unveiled at Goodison tomorrow night provided medical goes ok.

Landon Donovan will also miss the derby after it was moved.

Meh. I'd prefer Doyle between the two, but either's a massive upgrade over what we've got presently. Jelavic sounds all but done for £5.5m

Looks like Doyle and Vossen are the back up plans.

Everton have lined up reserve deals for Kevin Doyle and Jelle Vossen, just in case the attempt to sign Nikica Jelavic from Rangers falls through.

With the transfer window slamming shut tomorrow night, Rangers are stubbornly sticking to a high valuation of their Croatian striker, despite their monetary problems.

If the Jelavic deal continues to stall, Everton are prepared to re-ignite interest in Wolves out of favour Irish striker Kevin Doyle, depending if the valuation is realistic.

Failing that, another back up plan has been hatched, with Genk´s Belgian hitman Jelle Vossen ready to be approached. The 22-year-old is a highly rated striker who has attracted interest from Aston Villa in recent times, and rumours are abound that he is unsettled at his current club and wants to try his hand in a higher standard of competition.

It is believed Everton are unwilling to break a self-enforced £5m transfer limit for a striker this window. There is a determination to secure a front man this January.

Meanwhile, Greek centre-half Kostas Monalos remains a valid target for Everton, with a deal in the region of £600,000 awaiting completion before the window shuts. The highly rated AEK Athens man has been followed closely by the Blues in recent months.

I guess there is even rumors of Junior Hoilett. Today should be a good day. :crossfingers:

Louis Saha is set to join Tottenham, according to Phil McNulty, the BBC Sport´s chief football writer.

Phil McNulty has tweeted "Louis Saha from Everton to Spurs now looking a done deal. Really intriguing move that. #bbcfootball"

[Fappin Raptor]

Get the deal done!!!

For the love of fuck get this kid signed long term so he can no longer use it as an excuse to waffle internationally.

[Fappin Raptor]

The Saha deal is looking to be an 18-month loan deal.

[spiker]

Yeah, see you later Saha

Saha is atrocious. Glad he's going if it happens.

[Fappin Raptor]

Watttt. Tony Hibbert is not the future. I'll have to read it when I get home.

DONE DEAL: Nikica Jelavic will join Everton from Rangers per Sky.
