Amina UmarEverton FC has shifted its focus to signing Jaden Philogene-Bidace from Hull City, a talented young winger who has garnered attention from top Premier League clubs. The Toffees are willing to pay around £16 million for Philogene, who impressed in the Championship last season with 12 goals and a stunning goal of the season contender.
However, Everton may need to increase their offer as Tottenham and West Ham have also shown interest in the player, with a £30 million asking price discussed. Philogene’s unique talent has been lauded by Micah Richards, and his potential has sparked a bidding war among top clubs.Everton’s pursuit of Philogene comes after their deals for Yankuba Minteh and Dominic Calvert-Lewin fell through.
The club is working to comply with the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR) and has already signed Tim Iroegbunam and let Lewis Dobbin go to Aston Villa.Philogene’s impressive performances have caught the attention of top clubs, and his ability to excel on the wing makes him a valuable asset for any team. With Aston Villa holding a buy-back clause, Everton will need to act quickly to secure the signing.
As the transfer window heats up, Everton’s move for Philogene marks a significant development in their summer transfer plans. With the PSR deadline looming, the Toffees are working diligently to strengthen their squad while complying with financial regulations. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
