Makes loads of sense, he would of been benched for the majority of the season because if we fetch in VvD or Manolas they will be ahead of him as will Sandro and Alonso for LB role.
Everyone wins here.
It's just a shit Radio Station really. Alan Brazil is always pissed on air talking about pub lunches and Champagne. Mike Parry and his co presenter are always arguing about who looks better dressed, Hawkesby and Jacobs just talk utter drivel and bore the life out of the nation and Adrian Durham is the biggest prat on the earth and just winds people up so they ring in and pay his wages.
Graham Beecroft who has lots of connections to Everton was on Talksport this morning and was asked about Lukaku, he said it's nailed on he's off to Chelsea and said our Nike deal taking effect is what is delaying the announcement of it.
Of course they don't want to sell him, he's one of the best LB's in the world, but if the player wishes to go they cannot do much about it. Same mindset as if we are offering truck loads and he chooses to stay, not much can be done.
CLOSE : Tiémoué Bakayoko was in Paris last night, may be in London this morning but medical planned this week with Chelsea. #CFC
Plenty saying he's in London this evening with medical tomorrow. His Insta story last night I am sure he said "Chelsea" at the end.
