Everton’s Star Striker May Be Heading to Tottenham
As Everton inches closer to securing their Premier League status for next season, they may be facing the loss of one of their key players in the upcoming transfer window.
Despite recent challenges, including a narrow loss to Liverpool and a hard-fought draw against Arsenal, Everton has shown resilience under David Moyes’ leadership. The team has suffered only two defeats in their last 11 Premier League matches, putting them in a relatively safe position above the relegation zone.
However, the club’s striking options have been limited due to injuries, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s fitness being a particular concern. Beto has stepped up in his absence, scoring 5 goals in 9 starts, while Armando Broja and Youssef Chermiti have recently returned from injuries to bolster the attack.
Looking ahead to the summer transfer window, Everton may be considering changes to their offensive lineup. There are rumors of interest in Liverpool’s Ben Doak, though his £30 million price tag and the rivalry between the clubs could make such a move challenging.
Calvert-Lewin Potentially Moving to Tottenham
According to Spanish media reports, Tottenham Hotspur has shown interest in acquiring Dominic Calvert-Lewin and has already taken initial steps to secure the England international’s signature.
This potential transfer comes as bittersweet news for Everton supporters. While Calvert-Lewin has been a consistent presence for the team in recent years, his injury record and high wages of £100,000 per week may make his departure more palatable for the club.
Despite being labeled as ‘excellent’ by former manager Sean Dyche, Calvert-Lewin has struggled this season, scoring only three goals and providing two assists in 22 Premier League appearances. It appears that the striker is reluctant to extend his contract with Everton, despite the club’s efforts to negotiate a new deal.
If Calvert-Lewin does move to Tottenham, it will be interesting to see how Everton fans react to his return in future matches. There is a growing sentiment among supporters that it may be time for both parties to move on.
Everton is reportedly considering Strasbourg striker Emanuel Emegha as a potential replacement, suggesting that the club is already preparing for life after Calvert-Lewin.
