Transfer Rumour Thread 21/22

Scottish side keen on Everton midfielder Beni Baningime - Liverpool Echo
An unnamed Scottish Premier League side are reportedly keen on signing Everton midfielder Beni Baningime.

According to the Liverpool Echo, he has attracted a suitor from Scotland and is expected to be made available again by the club despite being part of first-team training under Rafa Benitez.

Baningime, who spent the second half of last season out on loan at Derby County, has entered the final year of his contract at Goodison Park.

The 22-year-old has been at the club even before he was a ****ager and has emerged up the ranks to be a first-team player.

He’s also impressed David Unsworth who’s referred to him as ‘outstanding’ according to The Liverpool Echo.

Prior to the 2017/18 season, he was on the periphery of the senior squad and made his debut for us in the EFL Cup against Chelsea.

A few days after the game against the London outfit, he made his Premier League bow against Leicester City.

He was even a regular part of our Europa League squad and also came on in the second half for the Merseyside derby.

However, once Marco Silva came through the door, Baningime’s progress was halted and his Toffees career has hit a major ro******* since then.

Now, under a new manager and a number of players out on extended leave, the 22-year-old has found himself the perfect opportunity to impress and fight for his future at the club.

He’s been part of the senior training squad in pre-season and Benitez must spend some time with him before making a definitive decision about the player.

If we’re selling the likes of Fabian Delph and Andre Gomes, we will be needing bodies in midfield and if Baningime continues to impress in training, we could see him closer to the first team next season.

There is the story on him from 5 days ago saying a Scottish Premiership is interested in him. Looks like he has the talent, probably just needs game time.

Imagine Everton would want a fee for the boy plus as others have pointed out his wages are high. Don't see this as likely tbh

Everton might do something similar to what we did with Souttar - smaller transfer fee but a big sell on clause?

A possibility. Don't know where the rumour came from (Oddsox) but I wonder if the Scottish club is/was Sellik

May be some confusion on this as we're also after a striker called
Beni Bangemin 😁

I actually thought that's what the OP intended to write originally. 😂

Certainly sounds better than Bolton in terms of pedigree and potential.

Actually so did I at first, had to google the kid.

But in other good news we have made enquiries about a Plymouth striker by the name of Andy Skydit 😁

I did hear that we bought a new minibus though. Someone told Ashgar that Hertz Van Rental was a Dutch internationalist

Any chance we can get back to arguing when jokes like that are coming out!
