This guy has barely played any first team games in his career, I doubt Everton want to keep him around. He apparently signed a new deal 3 years ago after playing a few games under caretaker manager Unsworth, wasn't played by Allardyce and hasn't been seen since.
I think we're most likely trying to get this guy in on a permanent, wouldn't actually surprise me if the Everton end his contract early by mutual consent and he signs on a free.

He's our main backup striker, don't think Waggy is favoured as the middle of a front 3 by Rooney. We'd need to have a plan B striker signed before he goes out surely.

Wiz made a number of excellent passes through the lines yesterday. 

Rooney would have to pick him.

Whittaker would be an awesome player for a team if they had the time and luxury to be able to play a player purely to develop them, instead of fighting their way clear of the relegation zone.
He's not a winger or a centre forward but more of a Rashford / Greenwood type player. Someone who starts on the wings and cuts inside early to finish the ball into a corner of the goal. 
I think it's really unfortunate we're losing him but as a player, Cooper will be most likely to coach him to fulfil his potential.
 

Hmmmm... Swansea tends to have decent recruitment and Steve Cooper knows a good English youngster... Whittaker was clearly too good to play in the U23s, but never quite made it in our first team. I think with Coopers coaching he could reach his potential.

I'm interested to see why AC Milan were so keen to bring him in, seems like a massive risk for a team who are potentially close to winning the league for the first time in forever. I did a quick google search on the Milan manager and he was apparently a very fast ball playing defender in his playing days and wants defenders to push high up the pitch and join in with the attack.
Sounds tailor made for Tomori, wish him all the best.

I've been reading some of the Chelsea forums still trying to figure out why he wasn't being played ahead of Christensen and Rudiger. There's claims of "bullying" in the dressing room with a lot of older heads in there creating discontent that Mason Mount, Tomori and James were being played ahead of them. I think Frank decided to pick and choose his battles and decided that Mount and James were winnable but Tomori unfortunately had to be sacrificed so he could still play those two.

In my opinion we won't be selling him to "balance the books" or to pay wages. The sale of Gordon and any other outgoings is to give us financial space to play within FFP. At the moment we have little wiggle room, especially with COVID. 
If this goes through along with the sale of others, it means the owners have a few incomings planned that they need to clear up money for.
If Kaide Gordon is truly the best 16 year old in the country and he knew it then he probably wouldn't sign for us on pro terms anyway. At least we'd get a fee for him now.
