Sean Dyche has said Everton’s financial situation may force them to accept an offer for Dominic Calvert-Lewin next week despite his desire to keep the centre-forward.
The Everton manager would be loth to lose Calvert-Lewin, the club’s top scorer last season in all competitions, but also powerless to keep him should a tempting bid arrive before next Friday’s deadline. The centre-forward has entered the final year of his Everton contract having resisted signing an extension due to the uncertainty over the club’s future. With no resolution in sight – the American billionaire John Textor would still have several hurdles to overcome even if he agrees a deal to buy Farhad Moshiri’s majority shareholding – Dyche admits Everton’s finances could dictate a sale.
