Everton transfer news, rumours and updates live: The Toffees have expressed their interest in Kalvin Phillips

The 22-year-old striker has completed his season-long loan move to Everton for the remainder of the 2024/25 campaign. Armando Broja was expected to complete a deadline-day move to Ipswich but Everton somehow secured a move for the Albanian international who is expected to be out until mid-October with a foot injury.

Broja will join Everton on a season-long loan and the club has the option to make the move permanent next summer for around £30m. Broja’s current deal with Chelsea expires in the summer of 2028.

Premier League giants Everton have completed the transfer of Lyon midfielder Orel Mangala on a season-long loan after completing his medical on Friday evening. The 26-year-old primarily plays as a central midfielder but can also deputise in the holding position.

The Belgium international joined the French club from Nottingham Forest earlier this summer and remains contracted with Lyon until the summer of 2028.

“I feel really happy to be here and I can’t wait to get started,” Mangala told Everton club media.

“Everton is a big club. When I’ve played against Everton in the past, I’ve always felt there is a big fanbase here with a lot of passion for their club so it was an easy decision for me to come here.“

According to ‘Fabrizio Romano‘ on ‘X’ (formerly ‘Twitter’), Premier League club Everton’s forward Neal Maupay is set to join the Ligue 1 side Marseille FC.

Maupay will be moving to Marseille in a loan deal that contains an obligation to buy. The French club will reportedly pay the Toffees an initial loan amount of €500k for the striker’s services throughout the 2024-25 season. After that, the obligation to buy clause will kick in which as per Romano is staged at €5.5 million.

However, the deal will include potential add-ons circling around €3 million as well. Further to conclude the financial agreement of the transfer, Everton will hold a 20 percent sell-on clause in any future transfer deal for Neal Maupay by Marseille.

‘Fabrizio Romano’ has laid out that, the French player is ‘on his way’ to complete his medical at the Ligue 1 club.

As per ‘Fabrizio Romano‘, Premier League club Everton is closing in on a transfer deal for Ligue 1 side Lyon’s defensive midfielder Oriel Mangala. Romano has laid out that the Belgian player is likely to join the Toffees in a loan deal which could include a ‘buy option clause’.

Sean Dyche’s Everton obviously sold Amadou Onana earlier in the window to Aston Villa. Since then reports have touted that the club’s hierarchy has been on the lookout for someone with similar caliber in the midfield.

Oriel Mangala could give the Toffees’ midfield a bite which they have been lacking since the start of the new Premier League season. Whether Everton can get this one over the line before the window shuts, remains to be seen.

The Merseyside club are reportedly exploring a move for Chelsea forward David Datro Fofana who has been expected to leave Stamford Bridge on a temporary spell before the deadline day. The Ivory Coast international has struggled to hit the ground running at Chelsea and the club will be willing to accept a dry loan for the 21-year-old striker.

He had loan spells with both Union Berlin and Burnley last season and now Everton manager Sean Dyche has identified Fofana as a temporary replacement for Neal Maupay. But Everton’s financial situation makes it difficult for them to make any move in the transfer market.

 The Toffees are yet to make any offer for the 21-year-old attacking prospect.

The Blues were heavily linked with Napoli striker Victor Osimhen this summer, but a move could be derailed due to the forward’s staggering wage demands. According to reports, Osimhen is demanding a salary of £500,000-a-week, which would make him the highest-paid player in the Premier League.

Chelsea have been closely monitoring the Napoli forward throughout the summer, but are yet to reach an agreement with the Nigerian international. The Blues are also reluctant to pay his mammoth £110million release clause.

The club is currently looking at other alternatives, with Everton’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Juventus outcast Federico Chiesa, as two potential options for the West London giants.

Everton have turned their attention to Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay, who has been heavily linked with a move to Napoli this summer. The Serie A outfit have reportedly offered £25 million, but United are seeking at least £30 million for the Scottish international.

He has been one of the consistent performers for United last season, but his departure would generate pure profit for the club as they have to adhere to FFP rules and balance their books.

According to Football Insider, Everton are eyeing a late swoop for McTominay but might not be able to match United’s asking price.

The Reds are reportedly plotting a big transfer bid for Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite, who is reportedly keen to make a move to Anfield this summer. The 21-year-old English defender has also been on the radar of Manchester United since the start of this summer window.

Branthwaite’s contract with Everton expires in the summer of 2027 and the club are demanding in excess of £70million for the defender’s services. But few reports suggest that Toffees have no intention to sell Branthwaite to one of their arch-rivals.

But, Liverpool are confident that a deal could be done for the Everton man in the final week of the summer transfer window.

Newcastle United defender Kieran Trippier reportedly wants to leave the Magpies before the end of this summer transfer window. The England international who was an unused substitute in the season-opener against Southampton has one year remaining on his contract.

The veteran defender won the captain’s armband for most of his time with the Magpies, but Bruno Guimaraes has been elected as the new club captain this season. At the age of 33, Trippier wishes to explore other opportunities where he would be guaranteed first-team football.

He would be open to leaving St.James’ Park if the right opportunity comes along in the final few days of the summer window. Everton are reportedly amongst the suitors for the England veteran.

Liverpool have reportedly taken an interest in Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite who was heavily linked with a move to Old Trafford throughout this summer window. Everton have earlier turned down Manchester United’s £35million and £45million bids for the England international.

Everton are under no pressure to sell the talented young defender, who they value in the north of £70million but Everton and Liverpool do not exchange players due to their animosity, hence a move to Anfield for Branthwaite seems highly unlikely.

Jarrad Branthwaite is undoubtedly one of the best centre-backs in the Premier League and he is expected to prolong his stay at Goodison Park.
