Everton seem unlikely to go back for Tom Cannon
A strange one that seems highly dubious is the report that Everton are interested in re-signing Tom Cannon from Leicester City.
The former Everton Academy striker enjoyed a prolific first half of the season on loan with Championship side Stoke City, and there is supposedly an opportunity to bring him back after his loan spell has been brought to a premature end ahead of potentially leaving the King Power Stadium on a permanent basis.
Some sources claim that Everton have held talks over making a move for Cannon within the last 24 hours, but Sheffield United are confident they have emerged as the frontrunners and – along with Sunderland – want to sign him on loan with an obligation to buy for in excess of £10million if they earn promotion.
The connection to Everton seems highly spurious and Alan Meyers has reported there is no substance to it.

Moshiri needed the £7.5M we got for Cannon. See what new ownership can do for you?

Ffs, stop believing the first, and every thing you read.
Having said that I'm selling 24ct gold for the price of 9ct.
Form a queue you gullible lot!

In the championship you say
I say bollocks
If you know where to be on a football pitch you score goals
Better than DCL, Beto &chemiti
He is a typical no9
Chemiti cost £15 million and done zilch
Tommy cost nowt

No mention that we actually sold him to Leicester for £7M.
He is now allegedly valued at £10M.
Even by todays standards of dreadful journalism this report is total rubbish.

Chermiti has barely kicked a ball in anger for the first team so I am not sure on what basis you have decided Cannon is the better player?

And the late chance Dom missed the other night would have been in the onion bag.

The boy from Portugal has been written off way too soon in my view; when he gets back to full fitness, he may make a contribution.
16 Posted 17/01/2025 at 09:17:27
He just signed a contract extension with Man City until 2034!
17 Posted 17/01/2025 at 10:07:37
I think that maybe is the only interest in this story.
18 Posted 17/01/2025 at 10:15:33
One for the future?!
19 Posted 17/01/2025 at 10:17:37
Don't worry, mate, Moyes will soon endear himself even more to the faithful when he persuades Calvert-Lewin to pen a new contract.
20 Posted 17/01/2025 at 10:22:27
Going to cost someone a hefty wedge to buy him though, because Man City have removed any release clause from his contract.
21 Posted 17/01/2025 at 10:30:13
Subtle and very funny. They won't like that. I see much frothing and gnashing of teeth.
That Sandra Bullock has no idea what she is missing out on.
22 Posted 17/01/2025 at 11:02:45
I try my best. :-)
23 Posted 17/01/2025 at 11:41:53
"I see much frothing and gnashing of teeth."
Stop looking in the mirror then! :-)
24 Posted 17/01/2025 at 12:35:56
Given his goalscoring record in the Championship, this is a Yes from me.
25 Posted 17/01/2025 at 17:42:23
Would improve our lacklustre Midfield instantly!!
The finest young player that I've seen in the last decade of watching footy!!!
26 Posted 19/01/2025 at 09:10:35
People with knee-jerk responses to a non-firing forward line, I can understand… but the said players were never the answer.

Another prolific striker we should have kept. 🤔
