Failure to sell the club could prompt Everton to sell their star man

Another failure to find a buyer could prompt Everton to sell the team's leaders to make more money.

So, according to Football Insider, the Toffees are leaning towards selling their striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin because of this development. The need to say goodbye to the 27-year-old forward is also overlaid by the fact that his contract is valid only until June 2025.

The current transfer window is essentially the only opportunity to capitalise on the player, and it is one that Everton's offices intend to take advantage of.

Calvert-Lewin had previously attracted attention from Newcastle, but after the clubs failed to agree terms on a move, the Magpies have cooled somewhat towards the 27-year-old forward.

The striker was Everton's top scorer last season with eight goals.
