Fulham is nearing a £20 million deal with Everton for midfielder Alex Iwobi. Negotiations continued on Wednesday, discussing a fee that will also include additional payments for the 27-year-old, who has one year remaining on his contract.
Iwobi joined Everton from Arsenal in 2019 for an initial £28 million, with the potential to reach £34 million through add-ons.
Despite initially facing difficulties in winning over Everton supporters, Alex Iwobi has become a versatile and reliable player during the team’s recent challenging seasons of fighting against relegation.
While Everton would be hesitant to let him go, the potential sale of Iwobi would provide them with flexibility in the final hours of the transfer window to strengthen their attacking and defensive options.
With added signings into the squad like Arnaut Danjuma and Jack Harrison, there is a possibility that Everton’s manager Sean Dyche might be of the opinion that Iwobi should leave the club due to other available choices.
As it stands, Everton sits at the bottom of the table, having played three matches, and will also be away this weekend, playing Sheffield United.
