Dominic Calvert-Lewin transfer state of play emerges at Everton on Deadline Day

Dominic Calvert-Lewin looks likely to remain at Everton, according to Jacob Steinberg.

The Guardian reporter wrote via X on Friday (30 August), "Currently looking like [Dominic] Calvert-Lewin stays at Everton."

According to Steinberg, should Chelsea miss out on Ivan Toney and Victor Osimhen, it remains to be seen whether or not they will make Calvert-Lewin an option.

Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin to remain at Goodison Park?

A keyword that Steinberg used in his post is "currently". On deadline day, things can change very quickly.

For now, it looks as though Calvert-Lewin will remain at Goodison Park. However, should Chelsea become desperate as the day goes on, that could quickly change.

The Blues are on the hunt for a new striker at Stamford Bridge. Therefore, depending on which way the transfer dominoes fall, Chelsea could end up eyeing a move for Calvert-Lewin.

Losing the striker this late on in the transfer window would be a disaster for Dyche. The club do not have any time to replace Calvert-Lewin, which would leave them incredibly short up front.

Therefore, should any approaches arrive for the 27-year-old, they should be refused, no matter how tempting the money on offer might be.

Any potential financial windfall would not be worth Premier League relegation, which would be a real threat if Calvert-Lewin were to leave Goodison Park.
