Amadou Onana, a 22-year-old Belgian international midfielder, is one of the midfielders on the European scene with the most and the best market. As reported by MD, if it was a purely and exclusively sporting decision, the Everton player would be one of the clearest candidates to reinforce that demarcation in the FC Barcelona squad, but the Barça club maintains the full approach to football in the market subject to LaLiga’s response regarding financial fair play. This delay contrasts with a market view where Everton could benefit from a significant sale before the close of the financial year on June 30. One of the advantages that a sound financial operation can bring you is the adjustment of your Premier League accounts and thus remove the threat of points being deducted. As it stands, Arsenal would be the club with the most possibilities right now of all those who have shown interest in Onana. There are also Manchester United and Bayern, among others.
As reported by the Liverpool Echo, the sale of a player before the end of the football year at the end of the month will boost Everton’s chances of meeting the Premier League’s retention standards for the first time in three years and thus avoid a third relegation points before the upcoming 2024-25 season. Furthermore, in that context, if the transferred player is Onana that would help Everton’s ability to prevent the sale of their most valuable player, 21-year-old centre-back Jarrad Branthwaite, where Manchester United offers £35 million, a figure considered far from its real value, which for the Liverpool club is at least 80 million. Onana, on the other hand, could go for a lower price, around £50 million, according to the same source.
Time favors the clubs most ready to go into the market as soon as they decide, like Arsenal. The club coached by Mikel Arteta has been following Onana for months. In London they first impressed with the Belgian’s performance in February 2023 at Goodison Park. That was a long time ago.
Surprisingly, Onana is not at the center of the plans of Sean Dyche, Everton coach, in the games where his existence is at stake in the Premier League, against Nottingham Forest, Liverpool and Brentford.
In the Premier League, up to six clubs are in a position where a sale would greatly benefit their efforts to stay within the three-season, £105m combined loss limit at the end of the year. numbers closed at the end of this month. At Everton, it is felt that Manchester United’s offer for Branthwaite, which it thinks is very modest, has to do with the feeling that clubs interested in buying observe a weak position for the seller.
