Fulham are close to reaching an agreement with Everton over a 20million deal for Super Eagles midfielder, Alex Iwobi. Talks were ongoing on Wednesday night over a fee that will involve further add-ons for the 27-year-old who has one year left on his contract. The Nigeria international joined Everton from Arsenal when Marco Silva was manager at Goodison in 2019. He cost an initial 28m with the deal geared to rise to 34m with add-ons. It’s possible however that Sean Dyche, who has strengthened on the flanks with new summer signings Arnaut Danjuma and Jack Harrison, may feel Iwobi is now surplus to requirements and sanction a move for the star player. Everton sit bottom of the Premier League table after three matches and have a crucial early relegation battle with newly-promoted side Sheffield United this weekend.
