Yarmolenko talks ongoing

Those Liverpool Echo are reporting that the club are willing to trigger the player's 20m release clause, a suggestion countered by sources in Ukraine who claim no such clause exists. Nevertheless, it was our understanding that the player is keen but that Everton also face competition for Yarmolenko from as-yet un-named clubs.
Kiev's owner Igor Surkis has gone on record as saying that Yarmolenko will only be allowed to leave for a "top club" and Stoke City's attempts to sign him earlier this summer were knocked back on that basis.
Whether that represents a stumbling block where Everton are concerned - it's unlikely; again sources closer to Kiev assert that the Blues are highly-regarded - remains to be seen but it has been suggested that negotiations are unlikely to be straightforward.
Still, ESPN are claiming that the Blues have now agreed a fee of 14.5m for Yarmolenko and the BBC also say a deal "could" be done for a similar amount. Talks are taking place in Monaco, with Everton officials hoping to conclude a deal soon.

Anyone hear anything?
6 Posted 20/08/2015 at 00:20:00
Some reports say the initial rumour was false and nothing has yet been agreed.
As they say, we will have to wait until they are holding the shirt up.

He's tall, he has great skill and he's strong. My concern is he's too slow for the Premier League.
18 Posted 20/08/2015 at 06:04:49
19 Posted 20/08/2015 at 06:36:13
Would be great to get him in time to at least introduce him to Evertonians before the Man City game.

Anything that is written in these papers is a load of crap made up to keep the writer in a job. Don't believe a word until the guy is holding the shirt. The article even states that the information was taken from a fake BT sport account.
22 Posted 20/08/2015 at 07:33:27
Just make it happen Blues!
He's not slow, he's a football brain and that's something our midfield really needs out there.
Were Eric Cantona or Teddy Sheringham fast players??
No but their football brain was forever working.
I actually believe Bilyaletdinov was a wasted talent here, every time the lad played in his natural preferred position just behind the striker for the Russia team he prospered, for a guy with such a sweet left foot and rocket shot I believe we denied ourselves a privilege by shuffling him out wide left.

The lad doesn't want to stay at Kiev. He's told the president that also. He thinks he's at the age now where he's ready to test himself in a top league in Europe and his preference is the Premier League. He's that eager to come to the Premier League that he was more than willing to join Stoke when they turned to him when they initially were knocked back by Shaqiri but the Kiev president didn't think Stoke were a big enough club for him and knocked their bid back!
I'd like to think the Kiev president does think we're a big enough club for him but what I'm hearing mainly is negotiating the fee for him is the stumbling block for us atm. Apparently contract terms between us and Yarmolenko have been agreed.
Hopefully we can get this one over the line as he would add some much needed quality to our side in the final third! The lad as pace, can beat a man, see a pass and as goals in him and can potentially be a game changer for us.
So let's see how this one unfolds in next week or so?!

29 Posted 20/08/2015 at 08:17:40
I've heard he is quite a knowledgeable guy as well, so hopefully he will have done his homework and knows Everton are the fourth most successful club in England, despite our recent lean years, and Roberto needs to turn on his obvious charm and get the man to buy into his philosophy for the future.
If our esteemed manager can do it with Kevin Mirallas, who everyone believed would be on his bike in this window, and similarly with McCarthy, then as long as the fee isn't a problem, and it's all down to personal terms and RM has been given some latitude in that area, I'm hopeful our crafty Catalan can swing it for us.
Come on, Roberto, do us proud, and go out all guns blazing to sign possibly the best player we've had a chance of for years!
30 Posted 20/08/2015 at 08:26:05
31 Posted 20/08/2015 at 08:37:41
I am only assuming that they were hoping to squeeze every last penny out of players like Lennon, who seems to be valued at £9M. They would probably be looking to get an awful lot of cash in through player sales before looking to spend £15M on one player.
Overall, most other clubs in our bracket seem to have already spent their cash this window. Maybe there was a plan after all to wait and see what talent was left out there after other clubs had spent their budgets. Avoids getting into a battle for players.

Kieran, Spurs are on an absolute looser with regards to Lennon. I think we might just get our own back after the Steven Pienaar affair.
41 Posted 20/08/2015 at 09:50:08
42 Posted 20/08/2015 at 10:03:04
Can't believe the brilliant Florian Thauvin is going to Newcastle for £13M.
43 Posted 20/08/2015 at 10:11:56
I would like to see us sign at least one attacking player and Yarmolenko is quite the talent. It is a bit of a gamble seeing that most Ukranians/Russians flop in the premier league. But a gamble I'd like to take. The lad has sheer class.
If we don't sell anyone and add Yarmolenko and Mori, I think we actually had a good transfer window. But that's a big if.

If the Express states we are close to a deal for Yarmolenko, then we are quoting them and "hope this one will happen." !!
Who would be a football supporter, eh?!
48 Posted 20/08/2015 at 12:53:26
Other than Kagawa and Podolski earlier this season, I haven't been this excited about a potential transfer since we entered the loan-race for Big Rom two years ago.

50 Posted 20/08/2015 at 13:12:52
51 Posted 20/08/2015 at 13:17:03
With his attributes, he can play left, right, or central. Great set-pieces and an eye for a goal - spectacular ones at that. Also, top assists in Europa league last season.
He's been the golden boy of Ukrainian footy for a while now. He's bagged a few player of the year awards as well, up against boys like Willian, Luiz Adriano, Douglas Costa, Srna, Fernandinho, etc.
Love this to happen, and hopefully he is the reason that we weren't too serious with our approach for Shaqiri.
52 Posted 20/08/2015 at 13:21:55
The issues with the Stones' stories is that they are fabricating stories to unsettle the player, as if Mourinho had them attached to strings.
Stories like the player has agreed terms with Stones, the player wants to go, and Everton are just holding out for £32m blah blah blah.
Yarmolenko has a year left and has stated his intention to leave. Stones has 4 left, has kept a dignified silence, other than to state how happy he is at Everton and looking forward to a good season.
Completely different in my opinion.

Out of the blue, Chelsea announce fee agreed last night.
Next day. Pedro signed for Chelsea.
Everton... considering, mulling over, having a wee look see...
58 Posted 20/08/2015 at 14:42:54
59 Posted 20/08/2015 at 15:13:10
Though Alan was possibly pointing out what happens when a team (Manure in his example) dither and don't get things done quickly. E.g Spurs nip in and snap up Yarmolenko from under our noses.
60 Posted 20/08/2015 at 15:51:02
61 Posted 20/08/2015 at 16:07:00
Also the top bod there stated he will only let him go to a top club...well they twatted us so I don't think he will see us as a bigger club. Would love it to happen, really would, but it won't... get ready for Lennon and injury prone Evans on deadline day and that's it.
62 Posted 20/08/2015 at 17:16:25
63 Posted 20/08/2015 at 17:20:45
66 Posted 20/08/2015 at 17:45:12
It would definitely have us dreaming of possibilities again!
67 Posted 20/08/2015 at 17:52:39
68 Posted 20/08/2015 at 18:43:55
And for all these people who say we are not a big club, they are truly talking crap. We are a huge club, history confirms this. It's just that we are badly managed and have been for decades.
69 Posted 20/08/2015 at 19:11:31
Also says that Ukranian clubs are notoriously hard to negotiate with so they will drive a hard bargain, but the signs are looking good. He thinks that any deal will probably take up until the deadline to get over the line, so don't expect a swift conclusion. Never straightforward with Everton is it!
71 Posted 20/08/2015 at 19:27:25
72 Posted 20/08/2015 at 20:32:35
But that doesn't stop me hoping!

I just can't see how much game time either would get if they have to compete with Deulofeu, Miralles, Osman, Cleverley, Kone, Barkley, and possibly Yarmolenko, that's a lot of players to pick from for the three forward positions behind Lukaku. And I haven't even started counting the up-and-coming young 'uns like Dowell, etc.
86 Posted 20/08/2015 at 21:24:24
87 Posted 20/08/2015 at 21:29:20
88 Posted 20/08/2015 at 21:30:37
I do find it funny that even when we are heavily linked with someone left footed, it's still a right sided winger/forward whatever. That's Deulofeu, Mirallas and Yarmolenko who would a) all be among our top players and b) all right sided midfielders.
89 Posted 20/08/2015 at 21:31:17
McGeady will also likely be sold.

Instead of my normal 25 visits a day to TW I think I'm averaging 250 plus Twitter in case of an update on a bloke I've never really heard of!! Although YouTube footage reminded me of goal in Europe last year.
Hope we sign him as will give everyone a big lift!
101 Posted 20/08/2015 at 22:19:21

107 Posted 20/08/2015 at 22:51:57
Getting a bit ahead of ourselves. Really hope we get him... but not confident.
108 Posted 20/08/2015 at 22:53:25
"One of the best players in the world"?
Give me a pint of whatever you're drinking, Paul, please. McGeady looks amazing on YouTube mate.
109 Posted 20/08/2015 at 23:01:07
Mirallas Barkley Yarmelenko
McCarthy Cleverley
Waiting in the wings: Deulofeu.
Sorry, I just wanted to write that out.
110 Posted 20/08/2015 at 23:10:59
111 Posted 20/08/2015 at 23:12:58
113 Posted 20/08/2015 at 23:24:39
Given we have about 10 senior midfielders and have signed Deulofeu and given Mirallas a new contract and seem to now be fixed on Ross playing in the 10 role and presumably will continue to use Kone as one of the AMs.......can't imagine Yamolenko was on the radar a few weeks back.
Wonder if the little plane above St Marys had anything to do with speeding up the 'intent' to which we're looking at him.
Apologies for being cynical but the guy would obviously be one of our best players if we got him (which is still far from certain). However, IF we do sign him I do wonder that that means for a few of our other midfielders. By all means sign class players if the opportunity arises but we still don't really have a back up for Lukaku or Coleman and are still painfully thin at CB.
Hopefully not the only movement before the window shuts......
114 Posted 20/08/2015 at 00:06:54
"I'd like that castle up there please, don't bother with the banks, here's a nice fat envelope, should do the trick..."
115 Posted 21/08/2015 at 00:53:14
We know he has a great left foot and would undoubtedly be a great addition but I wouldn't be so sure that he'll be the big step up that some are imagining. Song would be a safer bet and probably cheaper. Proven in the EPL, unsung hero for WHU last season and a number of quite brilliant assists in his last season at Arsenal before he went to Barca.
116 Posted 21/08/2015 at 00:58:19
This guy is mint.
117 Posted 21/08/2015 at 01:03:09
118 Posted 21/08/2015 at 03:33:08
I'm as pessimistic as a lot of people appear to be about this deal, but if (IF) it comes off.....and the Mori deal (if he's any good)......and maybe a striker.....if we can get one...
That was a lot of 'ifs'...
119 Posted 21/08/2015 at 03:51:35
Defence I'm more worried about. Behind Jags and Stones, we have only the kids, Browning, Holgate and Galloway. With Hibbo's injuries at RB I'm inclined to think Browning may be first-choice back-up to Coleman too.
120 Posted 21/08/2015 at 05:21:18
121 Posted 21/08/2015 at 05:42:21
Presumably, you don't think Kevin Sheedy nor Liam Brady (to name but two) would have made it in today's, ahem, highly skilled Premier League?
122 Posted 21/08/2015 at 05:56:22
This is the signing I have wanted all summer.. went on record I didnt want Shaqiri so I hope this is the one we have had in the back pocket all the time.
Conor Like your thinking.. mine is:
.............Lukaku..........
Mirallas Yarmolenko Deulofeu
.......Barkley...Cleverley.......
But I think yours probably makes sense with Deulofeu waiting in the wings - pun of the year!
123 Posted 21/08/2015 at 06:40:37
I see The Sun today back page leads with the liner "John Stones will hand in a transfer request to force through a move to Chelsea..." Haven't they already crossed the line and moreso with this approach? Surely this has to be illegal to some extent, making inflammatory confirmations at a personal level which could arguably undermine the employee / employer contract agreement that exists?
Why were there never any newspaper reports that attempted to undermine Liverpool during the Sterling transfer I wonder...?
124 Posted 21/08/2015 at 06:42:57
No matter that it wasn't in the Premier League – he showed just how good he is, end of.
125 Posted 21/08/2015 at 07:38:35
They have not yet come to terms with the fact that in the current iteration of the EPL, Liverpool have become an irrelevance and under their present management will continue to be mediocre performers hovering around the mid-table places between 10th and 5th – much like us over the past ten year – for different reasons.
However, I do believe we are now "building for the future" and we have a very promising crop of young talent coming through the ranks. If we can supplement these with the occasional "class" addition, like Yarmolenko, I think the future looks very bright.
That is why, as all costs, we must keep hold of Stones and build around him, Lukaku, Barkley, Browning, Galloway, Garbutt, Deulofeu, Besic, McCarthy, Cleverly et al.
I am not certain, but I think that, apart from Cleverly and possibly McCarthy, none of the others have yet turned 22 years old. What a great foundation for the future!
127 Posted 21/08/2015 at 08:40:27
128 Posted 21/08/2015 at 08:46:12
129 Posted 21/08/2015 at 09:18:51
I think we will (hope we do) still go for him but only on loan. My reasoning behind that is that if RM really wanted him he would be at the club now. Maybe Martinez is waiting until Spurs are desperate to get him of the wage bill which will mean a deadline day loan. That's my guess.
I know he's only got one year left on his contract but Spurs don't want him and unless someone comes in (Villa) with a concrete offer I think a loan deal could be done for a nominal fee and no wages for Spurs to pay for the last year of his contract. Makes sense on paper but you never know. He's better than McGeady so that deal gets my vote.
A combination of Yarmolenko (?), Mirallas, Barkley and Deulofeu will most probably be our best attacking options but with Lennon as well I think the strength in depth would be more notable than it has been in the past.
130 Posted 21/08/2015 at 09:26:58
BUT... if it's to placate Evertonian wrath in the wake of a Stones transfer, then it still means as much – if not more – than ever that Kenwright and his crew must go.
131 Posted 21/08/2015 at 09:41:23
He also was the best player on the park against us.
What worries me though, is that this name is always branded about yet no one has ever followed through on their interest.
Milan, Roma, Chelsea, Liverpool, Spurs... to name but a few; have all expressed interest in the past but never felt the need to follow it up.
To me that suggests that;
a) there are issues with the boy
b) he might not be cut out for the league
c) his agent is a mouth who flaunts him to every club (through the media) in the land trying to get him a deal.
I'm very pessimistic about anything coming from these rumours.
I would love us to sign a recognised name and talent such as he but I just can't see this one coming off. I think we might even be too big a move for him.
132 Posted 21/08/2015 at 09:41:41
134 Posted 21/08/2015 at 09:44:04
Got to agree with you Jay, and the worry is exactly what you say. Stones going after handing in a transfer request would be a total farce, to me. If this was the case, then surely he would have handed in a request as soon as Chelsea come calling.
Imagine Mouriniho during his first training session shouting "why didn't you put in a transfer request when we bid £20 Million for you, you fucking daft twat".
135 Posted 21/08/2015 at 09:52:52
136 Posted 21/08/2015 at 09:54:08
I think the reason that we are making headway on signing him now is because he is in the last year of his contract and they are worried he will walk for nothing next summer. I know there are rumours he has a release clause, but these Eastern European teams are notoriously hard to deal with and I would guess there is something in Yarmolenko's contract that has made it easy for the Kiev owners to keep him there in previous seasons. I personally reckon that we have come in for him at the right time.
In terms of a lack of interest from other teams, I think that is down to their spending already, coupled with the types of players they actually need. Take Chelsea for example: they have spent on Pedro already and they also have Hazard, Willian, Oscar, Cuadrado, Moses and even possibly Remy who can operate in all of the attacking midfield roles. We NEED a player like Yarmolenko, which is the difference.
137 Posted 21/08/2015 at 09:54:14
138 Posted 21/08/2015 at 09:55:49
A transfer request is a last resort for a player and an agent due to the way that a contract is structured and the contractual penalties that would be incurred for handing in a transfer. Therefore an agent would be advising his player not to do it unless they absolutely have to.
If the player really wants to go, then the agent would be advising them to sit tight and see if the clubs can agree a fee or not. If the selling club are asking too much or don't want to sell and the transfer deadline is approaching, should the player want to leave, then and only then would the advice be to hand in a transfer request to try and force the hand of the selling club.
139 Posted 21/08/2015 at 11:00:26
Therefore, I'll believe this is happening when I see him at Goodison holding a scarf, and even then I'll expect it to go tits up the second I look away.
140 Posted 21/08/2015 at 11:39:50
Andrew this is Everton, and football in general, alls we can mostly do is speculate.
141 Posted 21/08/2015 at 11:46:55
142 Posted 21/08/2015 at 11:51:17
Then again... this is Everton and you just don't know until he is wearing the shirt.
145 Posted 21/08/2015 at 12:54:45
146 Posted 21/08/2015 at 14:10:29
Last season we looked scared and appeared to turn away from every tight situation. This guy could be the key to unlock strong defences. I think he'd be a quality addition. COYB

150 Posted 21/08/2015 at 15:38:53
Really hope this happens.
151 Posted 21/08/2015 at 16:32:38
This coupled with nobody 'yet' leaving is a real plus. I know that there is 2 weeks of the window left but I am feeling surprisingly optimistic (touch wood).
152 Posted 21/08/2015 at 16:36:33
153 Posted 21/08/2015 at 16:43:40
Mirallas and Deulofeu are not going to be fit for every match this season, will have dips in form, will need rest, will get bans. It's all about the squad nowadays and I would be happy if we managed to get Yarmalenko AND Lennon.
Signing Yarmalenko is in no way a slight on Gerard. Four first-team capable wide men is a must for any team that wants to challenge for trophies. Yarmalenko can also play in the AMC position giving us cover /competition for Barkley and Naismith.
154 Posted 21/08/2015 at 16:54:42
155 Posted 21/08/2015 at 17:03:19
The Ukranian may take some time to adapt but he scores and creates goals at quite some rate. There's no sure bets but I reckon he would become a firm favourite and could even put us back into top 4 contention. He has something we have lacked since Pienaar's demise and Arteta's leaving which is an intelligence and awareness to unlock tight defences. He could be our Silva/Coutinho/Mata type player. Fingers crossed.

I was in Hong Kong a few years ago and a HK Chinese business colleague was telling me about his brother and his family going from HK to Australia on his "yak". Took a wee while to realise he was mispronouncing "yacht".
Maybe we could at least invest in a yak? Hey, we had one! Didn't feed him enough though.

Schevchenko and Rebrov tore through teams until they arrived here, Bilyaletdinov never made it and to think only the one that has is Andre Kanchelskis so this is a big gamble that I pray takes off... and it may well do because he ripped us to pieces last time.
Half of this is settling in, there isn't a large Ukrainian community where he can feel at home here, so...

Here goes, and as they say in no particular order!
Traviata - Deulofeu
Ormskirk Rearguard - Jagielka
Durham Early - Cleverley (early signing)
Dutchman - Mirallas (Yes I know he's Belgian)
Hispi - Baines
Kilaxi - Coleman
Monarchy - Kenwright
Mozart - Martinez
Sarmarsh - Besic ??
Winterjewel - Stones
Golden Acre Primo - McCarthy
Greyhound - Lukaku
January King - Barkley
Drumhead - McGeady
Tinty - Kone
Wheelers Imperial - Barry
Natsuki - Oviedo
All taken from the Sutton's catalogue - sometimes makes better reading that the red top shite.

As for Rebrov, a similar problem at Spurs. I think he was bought by one manager who was almost immediately sacked and was then sent to Coventry by the next manager. So in both players' cases, their faces didn't fit.
Bilyaletdinov was played out of position by OFM and was crap anyway. Has he retired?
Back to Yarmolenko, it has always been suggested that this will go to the wire. These buggers are tough negotiators.

Yarmo is an absolute must. It is a signing that must happen. It's almost a signing that shouldn't be happening, because he is almost the type of player who should be signing for Juve or Roma – rejoice if we get this over the line. He will revolutionise the "golden generation" project.

I could see Chelsea, Liverpool, etc jumping in saying thank you for paving the road for us. Or worse, Yarmolenko dubious agent making one last phone call to one of those teams and making one last pitch for a bigger payday... for himself.
And let's see Funes Mori before we render judgment. He might turn out to be "iffy", but let's give him some time. I worry this kid makes one tiny little mistake, and suddenly folks rip him apart.

But the grumpy old man in me is resigned to thinking we're more of a 'McGeady club' than a 'Yarmolenko club' when it comes to transfers. I sincerely hope to be proved wrong.

Yarmolenko is big into carp fishing and our Hibbo is First Dan or Master Jedi (or whatever they're called) when it comes to fishing for carp.
206 Posted 23/08/2015 at 09:54:02
This should have been sorted last week and we should be parading him before the City game.
Get it sorted!!!

What was Stones this window will be much worse the next one. At the rate we are going we could be the next Southampton getting picked clean by the Sky vultures. Yarma, Stones, Barkley, Lukaku, McCarthy, Coleman, Mirallas. End up with plenty of cash but all our best players gone and our chances of making real progress along with them..

If he comes in then and Stones stays the transfer window could be view as reasonably successful
221 Posted 23/08/2015 at 14:54:54
222 Posted 23/08/2015 at 15:07:07
Perhaps Bill @ Co should get in a batch of seeds now and start planting on Walton Park in readiness for the super turf being laid!!
