Cfcuk can reveal that Shaun Wright-Phillips has joined Everton.

More to follow

And:

Chelsea boss Luiz Felipe Scolari admits he would be willing to trim his squad ahead of the close of the transfer-window and that could mean Shaun Wright-Phillips being allowed to leave.

The likes of Juliano Belletti, Branislav Ivanovic, Andriy Shevchenko and Wright-Phillips are all on the fringes of the first-team squad at Stamford Bridge.

Scolari currently has 26 players in his senior set-up and he admits he could be willing to let up to two of them leave.

Shevchenko was this week in talks with AC Milan - but the deal fell through, and Scolari insisted he was more than happy to see the Ukrainian stay.

Belletti, Ivanovic and Wright-Phillips have also been linked with moves away and the England star has a number of clubs interested in taking him.

Portsmouth manager Harry Redknapp is desperate to take him to Fratton Park, whilst Aston Villa, Sunderland, Newcastle and former club Manchester City are also thought to be keen.

Scolari insists he does not know if anyone has come in for Wright-Phillips but dropped a big hint that he would be happy for him to depart.

"We have 26 players now," said Scolari.

"If I lose one or two, it's not a problem for me because I have a minimum 24 or 25.

"I don't know if some clubs want Shaun [Wright-Phillips] and I don't know what the player thinks about offers from other teams but as I've said before, if I have 24 or 25 and three or four players for two positions, I am happy.

"I have three or four players in this position - right wing, left wing. If the club sell one or two players more, it's not a problem for me."

The imminent signing of Robinho will signal the end of SWP's career at Chelsea.

The imminent signing of Robinho will signal the end of SWP's career at Chelsea.

Wouldn't call it an 'imminent signing'.

Your right though. If Robinho comes, SWP is gone.

[Aesthetic Relic 301]

Dave mentioned in the match thread that a move to Everton is looking likely according to the latest rumours.

Tbh, I wont be sorry to see him go.

sheva and SWP gone? I think we will have a certain Brazilian by the end of the week!

[riks12 3]

Good luck to Shauny if its true. He had no place here, so I think it's good to both sides.

Hopefully he will do well there.

[Ollie 4,400]

Well i dont think he has gone lol. Scolari likes him i think, well he said he has plans for him and he looked pretty good in pre season. I aint heard anything about this yet. They have just signed Lars Christian Jacobsen but not Shaun Wright Phillips. Maybe it will be revealed tomorrow if its true.

I heard that this might happen on Sky this morning. Sky also reported that Malouda might go to Newcastle, we'll see i guess.

[Ollie 4,400]

If we sell both or just one for a decent price, it looks like we'll go all out to get Robinho for however much it takes. That seems to be the plan.

[Elliott 7]

I merged two topics together, discussing same thing, and this is the right forum for it seeing as it is most definitely a rumour!

SWP rules out City return

Shaun Wright-Phillips' agent claims his client has no desire to join Everton or Manchester City.

Both clubs have been strongly linked with the Chelsea winger of late, with speculation mounting that the England international could be on his way out of Stamford Bridge before the closure of the transfer window.Having previously enjoyed a successful six-year spell at City, Mark Hughes' men were believed to be favourites to land the talented playmaker.

However, it appears that the 24-year-old is reluctant to rejoin a club currently embroiled in off-field turmoil, while he has also grown accustomed to life in London .

"He doesn't want to join either of them and we are now discussing the next move to see what we do," said his agent Wayne Lindsay.

"Because of all the problems there [City] and the uncertainty surrounding the place he is unsure.

"He is speaking with the manager [Luiz Felipe Scolari] at the moment but he is settled in London.

"He would like to stay and that's the bottom line but it is up to the manager.

"We are looking at all the options really at this moment in time so I can't really say much more."
