June 27 According to the latest news from The Athletic’s chief reporter David Ornstein, Everton could be forced to sell striker Calvert-Lewin to ease pressure from the Premier League’s Profitability and Sustainability Regulations (PSR).
With a week left until the Premier League PSR window closes, Everton are a team that urgently needs to address the PSR issue. As previously reported, Everton’s loopholes in financial fairness are relatively small, but they still need to be filled by Sunday. Failure to do so will put the team at risk of further loopholes.
Newcastle United had previously expressed interest in signing the striker, but Everton’s asking price appears to have cast a cloud over a deal between the two clubs.
Calvert-Lewin performed well in the league last season, scoring four goals in his first seven appearances. He made 32 league appearances last season, his most since 2020/21.
Calvert-Lewin’s greatest strength lies in his aerial ability. The 27-year-old has won 41% of his 12.8 aerial duels per 90 minutes in his eight seasons in the top flight. He has scored many spectacular headers in his 213 league appearances.
