A busy-ish day on ReadEverton but another passes with no new signings to report. Oh well. Patience is key, apparently.
Villa’s interest in James Garner turned out to be more complicated than first reported. Pete O’Rourke’s claim of a renewed approach was directly contradicted hours later, with TEAMtalk’s Harry Watkinson reporting Everton have received no approach at all — a reminder that even well-sourced reports can move fast in either direction.
Elsewhere, the right-back saga keeps growing. Everton have entered firm discussions for Jonathan Rowe, with a £42m price tag now attached, while Newcastle have joined Everton in pursuit of Norwich’s Kellen Fisher — though Norwich are currently refusing to sell.
Off the pitch, Everton’s matchday ticket freeze for 2026/27 has reopened fan frustration over April’s season ticket rise, with supporters drawing a direct line between pricing decisions and the pace of summer transfer business.
The full transfer tracker has today’s complete picture, including the ongoing El Ouahdi/Roma complication and the Vlahovic approach.
All in all, it remains a frustrating time for Evertonians with little but rumours and ticket price disparity to get excited about. Maybe tomorrow’s second friendly at Bolton will give us something to get our teeth into. Or maybe not.
