Will Everton go to war over Gabriel Moscardo?
The Premier League clubs are reported to have been turned off by his high price tag, though Chelsea could easily match it if they choose to try again in the new year.It is unknown what Everton has included in their proposal, but it would be unexpected if they paid such a high fee.
Sean Dyche’s team will not want to compete with Chelsea and Newcastle United, both of whom would easily outbid Everton in a bidding war. Barcelona could be a highly appealing destination for Moscardo, yet their financial position may make it tough.
However, the Toffees may be hoping that their takeover is finalized by the January transfer window so that their potential new owners can put some cash into their coffers.
