The NSNO Everton Forums

He is a £50m+ player. We would likely get £60m all in with add ons if we sold this summer which, if we found someone who can deliver proper wide player numbers, we should be open to taking.

He's contacted until 2029, can't say I'm bothered what buy-out clause he wants. Get your head down and have a top season, Illi!

Take a good fee for him and let him go. He clearly wants to be somewhere else.

Romano claims clubs have been told he's "very expensive".

Which is the correct answer!!!!

Feels like what he wants is to stay here on a lot more money until a time someone is willing to pay a fee hes probably pretty much already worth. Theres literally nothing but negatives in renewing him on what he reportedly wants. More money, can leave when he wants and the fee is capped.

The only way hed stay long term under that deal would be if his form dropped and we then had to pay a 40m player wages he wasnt worth. If hes really asking for this then theres no point in negotiating

I really enjoy watching him play which is more than I can say for many players or Everton in general the last 5 or more years.

That being said, would like to see more productivity and if so would think he'd go for big big money and we'd be right to take it.

Not against him leaving for the right price now but would be sad not to watch him every week.
