I'm not sure that's the case for non-EU nationals unless he has permanent residency. He'll get points for being an international and having recently played in the Premier League, so it is very possible he's get one anyway. Link to post Share on other sites

Ramarena 5,291 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Could be a useful option to rotate with Kaz till the end of the season if we remain under embargo. Fitness would be the main issue Link to post Share on other sites

Millenniumram 12,766 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Would be dubious about this one. Doesn’t seem to have had much impact anywhere recently. At a higher level generally granted, so maybe he’d do better in the Championship. But I’d still be pretty concerned given he’s not been playing since last summer - we need players who are available now, not more Ibe situations. That said, it’s frustrating we’re unable to get deals like this over the line when players are willing to join, and Rooney wants them in his side. He might be waiting for us now, but he won’t wait forever with other offers on the table. We’ve got to sort this takeover mess out. Link to post Share on other sites

DCFC1388 2,586 Posted January 20 Author Share Posted January 20 Will be a better option off the bench than the likes of JHI & Stretton who are both injured currently anyway. Wouldnt shock me if he hasnt been training with us already like CKR did Will Hughes Hair 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Didn’t really play much and now he’s unattached so I don’t know if that would count as to what league your playing in now - unless he literally gets the league points part of the GFE because Everton are in the Prem league. Does he have a dual citizen ship? Then he may have done the settled status part. I’m pretty sure if you have settled status then you have a continued right to work in the Uk. However if he was here on a permit previously and then that expired, then he won’t be permitted to stay. On the settled status, has someone told Bielik and Jozwiak to do their application?

Turk Thrust 474 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 A Senegalese international. Perhaps a diver though. He was the first Premier League player to be charged with "successful deception of a match official" in 2017. However if he’s willing to come here, then would be a good prospect Link to post Share on other sites

LeedsRam1999 447 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 If Rooney has played alongside him and thinks he will fit then I will trust in his decisions. I remember him having a decent run of goals for Everton in the prem but then he dropped off the face of the earth. However they did go through many managers in a short amount of time and as we know, that is damaging to some players. I have a feeling that as soon as Duane is gone, we will be able to pay the wages and bring in another player. DCFC1388 1 Link to post Share on other sites
