Frank Lampard has been outlining Everton’s plans for the January transfer window.
Asked whether Abdoulaye Doucoure – who has been linked with potential moves to Fulham and Nottingham Forest – could be on his way out and on-loan Conor Coady, who is ineligible to play against parent club Wolverhampton Wanderers, could be making his switch to Goodison Park permanent next month, Lampard said: “I don’t want to talk about players leaving off the back of newspaper reports, I think that’s a bit lightweight. We’ve got our squad working towards Wolves.
“Conor has been brilliant since he came here in every possible way so I, and we, would love to make that permanent at some point. That’s not happening right now but we’ll keep looking at that one.”
