When can Everton announce Dewsbury-Hall transfer as major update emerges?
Everton are edging closer to securing the services of Chelsea midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.
A year on since joining the London club from Leicester City, the 26-year-old appears to be on the move again.
While he struggled to establish himself as a regular for Chelsea in the league, he was their only player to feature in all 15 games as they clinched the UEFA Europa Conference League title.
The Toffees have already signed Thierno Barry, Adam Aznou and Mark Travers this summer.
Dewsbury-Hall to undergo medical on Tuesday
Everton are on the verge of signing Dewsbury-Hall, with the Englishman set to undergo his medical on Tuesday (5 August), per The Athletic.
However, it has been mentioned that the medical may continue for another day. Therefore, it’s expected to be completed by Wednesday (6 August).
The Toffees reached an agreement with Chelsea to secure the Englishman’s services for a £28million fee. Despite his initial reluctance to leave the FIFA Club World Cup winners, he has now played his final game for the Stamford Bridge outfit.
David Moyes will be thrilled as quality has been added in midfield
Dewsbury-Hall’s potential signing is a coup for the Toffees, and David Moyes will be thrilled with the quality he brings to midfield.
With 129 appearances, 17 goals, and 20 assists for Leicester, plus experience at Chelsea and Luton, the 26-year-old offers versatility, creativity and work rate.
| Club | Appearances | Goals | Assists |
| Leicester | 129 | 17 | 20 |
| Luton | 40 | 3 | 6 |
| Chelsea | 36 | 5 | 4 |
| Blackpool | 10 | 4 | 1 |
His ability to dictate play, contribute defensively and add attacking flair makes him ideal for Moyes’ system.
Dewsbury-Hall’s Championship-proven pedigree and Premier League experience ensure he can handle Everton’s midfield demands, providing stability and dynamism to push for a top-half finish.
Everton can announce the Dewsbury-Hall transfer by Thursday
As Dewsbury-Hall’s medical may not be finalised until Wednesday, it seems unlikely that an announcement will be made in the next 24 hours.
However, the medical could be done in the first half of 6 August, meaning it could be official in the next 48 hours.
As a result, there is a very good chance that Dewsbury-Hall is officially an Everton player come 7 August.
