Ellis Simms drops big hint he may leave Everton on Sky Sports
Everton loanee Ellis Simms has dropped a big hint that he may leave Goodison Park once again in the summer ahead of next season.
The attacker, currently on loan at Blackpool, missed out on the play-off final victory against Lincoln on Sunday with an injury picked up in the final session.
Simms will now return to Goodison Park ahead of pre-season next month and look to prove himself to Carlo Ancelotti.
Speaking on Sky Sports after Blackpool sealed the victory and reached the Championship, Simms dropped a hint he may be on the move.
“I’m not sure what the future holds,” he said.
“Who knows what the future will bring?”
Elsewhere.
We expect Simms to be out on loan again next season.
The young striker could even return to Blackpool after their promotion to the Championship, as he goes up a level once again under Neil Critchley.
Ancelotti could be looking to bring in another forward, depending on the future of Moise Kean, as he could only have Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Richarlison again.
Simms could have been that impact substitute, especially with his pace and power off the bench, it could be a real weapon.
The striker didn’t seem confident on his future, though, and that could be the first major hint that he expects to be away from Merseyside yet again.
First priority will be to recover from this injury, and then he can resolve his transfer activity with anything possible at this stage.
