Everton are reportedly open to selling Dominic Calvert-Lewin in January if he fails to sign a new deal before his current contract expires next summer.
According to Juve Live, the suitors of Dominic Calvert-Lewin could be boosted by the prospect of the striker being available in January. Everton are considering a sale in the next window, probably at a lower cost, given they do not want to lose him as a free agent in the summer.
Calvert-Lewin has been vital to this Everton side battling unwanted relation fights over the last few seasons. Given that their current standing is not that great either for the immediate future, the Toffees are set to stay in this fight for survival for some more time, which may not suit some of their current stars.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin is proving to be a big problem for the Toffees, as they have found it difficult to convince him of a new deal. This means that the 27-year-old striker will be free to leave next season when his current contract expires.
Everton held firm in their valuation of the striker in the summer, which helped them keep him on board with the hope of renewing his deal. Arsenal and Chelsea were keen on him during the summer and might be interested in January, as the Toffees are reportedly open to the idea of a sale rather than losing him for free next summer.
Calvert-Lewin’s profile suits many of those clubs, with Newcastle United also keen on the striker. The main story in the report points towards Juventus’s interest, as they are unsure about Dusan Vlahovic’s term future and the economics of keeping the Serb. Hence, they would be interested in bringing the 27-year-old striker on the cheap and at a relatively low salary compared to Vlahovic.
Everton to sell Calvert-Lewin in January
Dominic Calvert-Lewin might be looking ahead to the future with the idea that he can get a big move within the Premier League, as some interested Premier League clubs from the summer will revive their chase. Everton have no choice but to sell the Englishman, probably on a cut-price deal, to avoid losing him for free and miss out on the economic opportunity his sale represents.
Some interested Premier League sides, including Arsenal and Newcastle United, are looking for a new striker, as either would represent a good move for the English international. Hence, there is a huge chance for those teams to get a top-drawer and experienced forward in their ranks, which will definitely come as a big blow for Everton.
