Everton’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin was at the center of a secret swap deal offer earlier this month, according to renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano. While the details of the proposed deal remain under wraps, Romano has promised to reveal all in September, leaving Everton fans and transfer enthusiasts eagerly anticipating the revelation.
Calvert-Lewin, a talented and versatile forward, has been linked to several top clubs, including Arsenal, who have been rumored to be interested in his services. However, it appears that a potential swap deal involving the England international was on the cards, only to be shelved for now.
Romano, speaking on the Men in Blazers podcast, hinted at the complexity of the transfer window, stating, “At the moment with Chelsea, I’m not aware of anything concrete or close. Calvert-Lewin could only be something in the final hours of the window on Friday if they don’t find one of their top targets.”
The Italian journalist continued, “I still think he has a chance to stay at Everton, but I want to tell you one thing, but people in the industry will kill me, after the transfer window, I will reveal something on a swap deal that didn’t happen for Calvert-Lewin.”
Romano’s tantalizing hint has sparked intense speculation among Everton fans and transfer enthusiasts, with many wondering which player could have been involved in the proposed swap deal. While Romano remains tight-lipped for now, his promise to reveal all in September has only added to the intrigue.
One possible suitor for Calvert-Lewin’s services is Arsenal, who have been linked to the forward in recent weeks. However, with Eddie Nketiah reportedly nearing a move to Nottingham Forest, it remains to be seen whether the Gunners will revive their interest in Calvert-Lewin before the transfer window closes on Friday.
As the clock ticks down to the transfer deadline, Everton fans will be anxiously awaiting Romano’s revelation, hoping to gain a deeper understanding of the club’s transfer strategy and the future of their star player. With Calvert-Lewin’s talent and versatility making him an attractive proposition for top clubs, it’s clear that this saga is far from over.
