Average age of Everton’s outfield signings this summer is 22 years and 10 months. The club have done really well to sign players who have vast potential while also being able to contribute to the first-team right away. The profile of signings has been really positive.

For me, it's been excellent in the positions that we have bought in. It's the positions that we haven't that worry me a little. We need a right back and more depth up front, with Chermiti leaving. But we can probably cope without either. It is the difference between an A and a B though.

That is true, right now. In 4 years Dibling will be 23 and could be worth 100m. Grealish will be about to turn 34 and will be worth very little in the transfer market. Doesn't mean we shouldn't buy him permanently, but it's a consideration.

I think it may have been @paddyboyland.bsky.social (though I may be wrong), but I read somewhere that the potential future fee for Jack Grealish wasn't 50m, as that would be the entire package (maybe including loan fee?. Does anyone else remember seeing that?
