I can confirm this.

How about their attitude toward him?

Jesus, them ending with Wolves and Bournemouth. Have a feeling Wolves will be clear by then, but both could be huge 6 pointers.

No one really knows for sure. That being said, once a move gets this close it's in no ones interest for the player to be training this close to the move.

Kind of gutted the Everton away game is as early as it is (25/4). Would love to have gone there and relegated them. Ideally with Gordon scoring the winner.

Would you have said the same thing about Paqueta if he had pulled this? Or Maddison? Or Botman?

The shite people come out with just because it's a transfer they personally don't want to happen.

Everton fans are the absolute fucking worst.

This may get done tonight/tomorrow now. Once it gets to this stage it really is in the selling clubs interest to conclude negotiations ASAP.

There's no way Levy will sanction parting with this kind of cash for Gordon. He's currently in the process of trying save every last penny he can with that Porro deal.

Absolutely. Think this will likely be done one way or another by the weekend. We also need time to pivot if we decide to walk away.

Really think £35m with increasingly tougher to hit add-ons up to £50m is where it will land.

Think we're in the calm before the storm territory. The storm being the various shitfits that will go down once it's either confirmed as happening or confirmed as off.

They did brief that there would likely be little business (if any) done this window. Think if Wood hadn't gone it may have gone by without any signing, the idea being to save it for the Summer.

Would you have honestly said the same thing if Paqueta had pulled something like that in the Summer?

Seen some rumours that he is already in a hotel up here somewhere.

Pulling power (money) of the PL is wild. This is one of the best midfielders in a Champions League chasing side who may end up joining Bournemouth in a relegation dog fight.

Aye, was around mid-May last year when this seasons tops leaked. At least the White alternative and home anyway. Don't thing the Blue was till later in the Summer.

Think Adidas will likely be the season after next. If they're just exploring the possibility now any potential buy out of the Castore contract, then switching everything over to Adidas will be a long term thing.

Think we will know if this is the case for sure on Tuesday. Given how things turned the other night with their introduction, ASM and Isak should both be in from the start on Tuesday.

Agree with this. Some of the vendetta's against journalist are proper weird. I don't think it helps that confirmation bias is very much a thing when people look for transfer stories. It may be slowly turning, but the majority still seem to want this Gordon transfer not to happen, so will be all over any story saying it's unlikely, and look for reasons to shit on stories claiming it's close.

Aye, the whole Sky Sports News team are awful for that all window, but especially on deadline day.

I immediately disregard anything that comes from Italian media.

Apparently Alex Crook (TalkSport) has now said it's unlikely due to Evertons demands.

If a deal is as close as it seems it's in no ones interest to have him training right now, Everton included. They have likely already started to put plans in place for how they will be using the cash.
