Everton’s transfer deadline day search for fresh firepower continues with a trio of names linked with moves to Goodison Park now being ruled out. The ECHO understands that Sean Dyche will not be signing Kamaldeen Sulemana of Rennes, Viktor Gyokeres of Coventry City or free agent Andre Ayew.
Sulemana was a player of interest for Everton and they and Southampton both had a £22million bids accepted for the Ghanaian international winger but reports from France now claim he has chosen to join the Saints. Swedish international Gyokeres has netted 31 goals in 76 games for Championship side Coventry City since joining them on a permanent basis from Brighton & Hove Albion and has been on the Blues radar for several months but a move for him today has been ruled out.
