Everton looking to sell Fabian Delph in January
Everton are looking to sell several players in the January transfer window, and Fabian Delph is one of them.
According to journalist, Santi Aouna, who works for Foot Mercato, the Toffees are looking to offload Lucas Digne and Cenk Tosun alongside Delph.
Delph has only a few months left on his contract at the Merseyside club.
He wrote on Twitter (translated to English):
“Info: Everton would like to get rid of several players this winter including Lucas Digne, Fabian Delph, Cenk Tosun.”
Big January
The January window is absolutely vital for the Toffees.
Rafa Benitez has been given complete authority on transfers following the departure of Marcel Brands.
The Spaniard will be looking to bring players of his own choice, and sculpt the squad to his own taste.
The results have been very poor so far, but Benitez has got the backing of the owner.
Having said that, he probably won’t be given a huge transfer kitty in January, and may need to offload a few players.
Digne is likely to leave, with Everton already close to signing Ukraine left-back Vitality Mykolenko [The Athletic].
Delph is another player who could be offloaded. The England international has made three starts in this season in the league, and a further three appearances have come from the bench.
The former Manchester City midfielder struggled with injuries during his time at the club. He didn’t want to leave in the summer, but he is facing an uncertain future in January.
In other Everton news, expected January signing will succeed at Goodison Park according to former boss.
