Everton decline Tottenham winger despite contact from player’s agent

Everton are considering their options for the January window but have already decided against one opportunity.

The January transfer window has only just opened, but clubs across Europe are already starting to make moves.

David Moyes is looking to add more attacking options, with his strikers having struggled for goals during the first half of the season.

Despite that, the Toffees have already declined the chance to sign one specific player this month.

Everton decide against January signing after agent contact

Everton have received good news on Iliman Ndiaye’s fitness after his injury scare at the Africa Cup of Nations.

While he is on international duty, Tyler Dibling has been given a chance to step in on the right wing while the Senegal international is away in Morocco.

According to TeamTalk, representatives of Tottenham’s Manor Solomon reached out to Everton before his loan move to Fiorentina was finalised.

It is reported that along with Everton, his camp also approached Leeds United, Sunderland and West Ham.

With little interest from other clubs, Spurs eventually agreed a loan deal with Fiorentina that included an option to buy.

Moyes has made it clear that Everton will only bring in players who fit their needs this January, with backing once again expected from the Friedkins.

The club are now taking a more cautious approach in order to avoid unnecessary spending and stay within budget.
