Players IN (The Rumour Mill) Fishy out - 2004 EXCLUSIVE - NEW SIGNINGS

Another wrap on the knuckles for one of us. The transfer could go through now because he is a free agent.(09/09/04) This is a strange one this. He wasn't taken on by Bolton and he is looking for a Premiership club in January. Even though he is 37 next March he is a class act. Wonder why big Sam didn't keep him on? Maybe a pay as you go jobby. Blue

Last season was McCarthy's best ever as he top-scored in the Portuguese league and, more importantly, helped Porto to clinch the prestigious Uefa Champions League. But he has also always nurtured a dream of playing in the English Premier League. While at Celta Vigo of Spain, moves to both Middlesbrough and Aston Villa were scuppered at the last minute. So imagine McCarthy's delight this week when it emerged that, due to the imminent departure of Wayne Rooney for Manchester United, Everton were looking to sign him. Benni says: "Sometimes I wish I was not Benni McCarthy. The deal was done, I had agreed everything with Everton. I was expecting to go to the Democratic Republic of Congo (for Bafana's 2006 World Cup qualifier on Sunday) buzzing, thinking about going to play in Liverpool." McCarthy was even supposed to go to the British Embassy in Pretoria on Tuesday to finalise his work permit before the evening's transfer deadline.Then, at the last minute, lightning struck in the same way for a third time for him. According to the striker, Porto president Jorge Nuno Pinto da Costa decided he did not want to let his No 77 go.Porto have also just splashed out a reported $15,7-million on Brazilian striker Luis Fabiano, which must surely leave McCarthy's chances of regular first-team starts hanging in the balance. Benni
says:"If you pay that much money, you expect the player
to play." (02/09/04) Benni is due to sign for Everton before today's deadline. (31/08/04) Blue

With Moyesy having four months to plot his move in the transfer market, James Beattie we are told is heading his list of signings when the window re-opens in January. Everton who made a last minute offer of £7m, for the Southampton front man, where not willing to meet Rupert Lowe's valuation for the England striker, which was £8m. With time running out, Moyesy pulled out of the deal, and will wait for the January sales before making his move, with his newly found nest egg. (03/09/04) James Beattie is attracting the attention of Moyesy, as we go in search of a replacement for Rooney. James who is known to his mates as James, is said to be keen to move back up north, after all the shenanigans at The Dell this Summer. So if Moyesy is cash rich from the sale of Rooney, Mr. Lowe at Saints may be getting a call. (28/08/04) Blue

Everton have agreed £1.5m fee with the shite for Djimi. This will be a good signing like all of the players we get from the shite. He will become a great player. Remember how good looking Peter Beardsley became when he put on the blue shirt. David Moyes says:"We've agreed a fee with Liverpool of £1.5 million to bring Djimi Traore to the club. At the moment we're just waiting for clearance that everything's done and hopefully he'll have a medical later." (27/08/04) Jimmy wants to stay in the City, so he fancies a move to us. The only problem is the boardroom suits, who are still fannying about trying to get some cash. Djimi says:"I am very keen on a move to Everton. I want to be playing regularly and I don't want to be in the same situation as last season when I was in and out of the side. I want to play as the left-sided centre back and if that is not at Liverpool maybe I will have to move on. A move to Everton would suit me as I love the city of Liverpool and I am settled there." (24/08/04) We think we are going to sign someone from the shite. Our spy is adamant it is Jimmy (to his mates). He will sign on Monday (22/08/04)

Everton are rumoured to be preparing a bid for Argentinian midfield International Matias Almeyda. Matias or, Matty to his mates has just left Inter, after his contract expired and returned to his homeland to play for Independiente. His contract however was cancelled after his family received kidnapping threats, and he was not prepared to play on in those circumstances. He is said to favour playing for Everton as he would like to get to know Big Dunc, who is rumoured to have said he will help him out with his problem in his homeland. Also our sources at Goodison have told us that 'Sandro Pistone is not happy with our interest in Matty, as have you seen him, he's gorgeous. Matty says: "I apologise to everyone but I won't play in Argentina. I'm sorry for Independiente but a person can't train if he fears for himself and his family. Now, I hope a European club will want me." (21/08/04) Blue

Andy's agent doesn't know anything about Everton's interest but he says yer never know. Chiel Dekker says: "I have received several calls about it from the media, but I haven't received any official offers. Internazionale have not told me about anything, so I am not aware of any offers, not yet anyway. "I'm sure Andy would like to play in the Premiership one day." "(20/08/04) Inter midfielder may be a target for Everton. The former Ajax star could come on a one year loan deal. Andy (to his mates) only played 14 games for Inter last season, scoring 1 goal.

Moyesy is tracking Serbia and Montenegro international defender Milan Dudic. No don't worry, he is no relation to the shite's keeper, who loves letting goals in at his near post, but a Serbian centre half. Dudic's club Crvena Zvezda, have confirmed that Everton have been in touch over the Serbian centre half. Moyesy had watched Dudic in action in Belgrade last Wednesday during Crvena Zvezda's 3-2 Champions League victory over PSV Eindhoven. Moyesy also travelled to Ljubljana on Wednesday to view Dudic during his country's international friendly against Slovenia. In a long winded statement, a spokesman for the club confirmed that the Blues had been in touch. A Crvena Zvezda Spokeseman says: "We have had contact from Everton" (19/08/04) Blue

The deal with Colin has been called off. He joined in the training session in this morning, but his agent and Everton officials couldn't agree a deal due to an unspecified hitch. Another frustrating episode on the transfer front. David Moyes says:"At the present time the deal is off."(13/08/04) The PSV Endoven defender is to discuss terms for a possible year long loan period on Friday. If all goes well and he signs before noon on Friday, then he may go straight into the squad to play against the gooners on Sunday. Georgie (to his mates) is only 23 and favours the right back position, but has played in the centre of defence as well as wide right. He had a spell on loan at Dutch side NAC. Blue

This fella is on the scene again. Moyesy is interested in a possible loan deal for the season. See below what was said August 2003. (12/08/04) Sevilla's Mexican 2002 World Cup Star (skin head, who scored a whoopa against Ecuador) is due to train with Everton for a few days next week according to his agent. Ged (to his mates) is 24-years-old and played 22 times for Sevilla last season. Torrado's agent Olaf Bonales says: "There is interest from Everton, who want to acquire the player for a one-year loan with an option to buy him. Everton have invited the player to go on a three-day trial to Liverpool. They are familiar with his ability but they want to meet the player prior to signing him. The economic offer is good for everybody, as Everton would pay 200,000 euros (£138,000) for a one-year loan." Torrado
says: "I'm willing to play there. I want to prove myself
and that's a good place to do it." Blue

Blue Kipper's man in Amsterdam, Keno the clog, has reported that Panathiniakos, who played in the tournament at Ajax, that Gerry (to his mates) has agreed to sign for Everton. The 23 year old right back / midfielder played in Greek Euro 2004 side.He had a great tournie. Panathiniakos rejected offers from Porto, Valencia and Monaco before accepting Everton's bid. Obviously those teams never had the ready cash. We did, but it had the word 'monopoly' on every note. He will play in the olympics before joining Everton. Blue

Lovie (to his mates) may be about to join us from Glasgow Rangers as a replacement for the little fella, who missed loads of sitters. With the arrival of Dado Prso from Monaco, Lovie is pushed out. The Blues may have a bit of leverage with the money still owed to us for the sale of Michael Ball. £2m price tag though. (27/07/04) Blue

Everton could be making a fresh bid for Dutch midfielder Mark van Bommel. Reports indicate that Moyesy watched van Bommel in Tuesdays Champions League match at Highbury. Moyesy also took in My Fair Lady in the West End, and said it was an absolute classic. (16/09/04) Van Bommel doesn't want to join the Toffees. The Dutch midfielder told the Dutch press that he wants a larger club and that Everton are smaller than his present club PSV. (27/07/04) Moyesy has confirmed his interest in the Dutch midfielder. It is believed a figure of around £2.5m would be enough to secure the PSV's players signature. Everton are believed to be looking at a fifty eight year repayment schedule.

(25/07/04) News has it that Bill Kenwright flew out to Holland this morning to see PSV chappies to try and sign Mark van Bommel. That would be a signing.(23/07/04)

Bad news! For just £200,000 Dave signed for Southampton. It is a very sad day, as this lad will be a star and we thought Everton could have signed him, but due to this inept board we are totally skint. (11/08/04) Played a full 90 minutes for Everton Reserves yesterday at Southport and looks a great prospect. Only 16 years old, he was knocked about by some of the arl arse players in the Southport team, but came back for more. Has some lovely touches. Scored a header. We hope we can solve our cash problems and sign this lad on. He's not a Wayne Rooney, but he isn't far off being ready for the 1st team. (18/07/04) Blue

The Greek centre back is rumoured to want play in the premiership. He was a star at the Euro 2004, where he showed his talent for good defending and classy distribution. The 28 year old only played 6 times for Roma last season. Hard to believe he was on Sheffield United's books a few seasons ago. Dellas' agent Stefano Antonelli said: "We have had many offers including Tottenham, Everton and Porto." So it's Spurs or Porto then. (16/07/04) Blue

Moyesy is taking a chance on Eddy Bosnar. the Sturm Graz defender who played recently for the Blues on their tour in Austria. Moyesy however is only bringing the twenty four year old in as cover, and has warned fans not to expect to see him much in the first team. Bosnar at present has no work permit, but Everton believe they can swing something through an uncle's brother, father in law, who lived next door to Eddie's Auntie in Australia. Moyesy says: "We are going to try and get him. He doesn't qualify for a work permit but there is a situation where you can qualify for a working permit if you come from Australia. We are going to bring him in for a year and because we are very short of players he will give me some added cover. But I have to let people know it is not a signing who will go into the first team. He has a lot of potential, he did well with us, though we didn't see a great deal of him but he'll come in, play for the reserves and we’ll see how it goes from there." (27/07/04) Eddy played the full 90 minutes for Everton in there opening friendly game at FK Zeleznik. He looked a 'steady eddie' in the defence. He came forward to hit a powerful free kick from 30 yards out, but it went wide. (16/07/04) Sturm Graz's centre half Eddy Bosnar, has joined up with the Everton squad at their Austrian training camp. Moyesy is running the rule over the player who is available on a free. Alan Irvine says: "This is an opportunity for us to have a look at the player. He is still contracted to Sturm Graz but we have been given permission to look at him. He is a big tall centre half and a bit ahead of our lads in terms of his fitness because Sturm Graz returned to training earlier than us." (13/07/04) Blue

Everton are believed to have joined the chase for Euro 2004's Player of the Tournament Theo Zagorakis. Theo who has had a spell in England with Leicester in the late 1990's, is attracting attention from a host of clubs across Europe. Theo's agent Kimon Kokorogiannis, Kim to his mates says that things will happen next week when his contract ends at AEK Athens. Kim says: "We have many offers from different countries which is natural because he is the player of Euro 2004. Theo is looking for the best team and the best offer. He will make a very careful choice. He believes that he can play well at all the teams. Now he can't sign anything. No pre-contracts or contracts, nothing at all because he is still a player of AEK. We will have news about his decision next week, maybe on Tuesday." (09/07/04) Blue

| The 24 year old forward scored the only goal in the Euro 2004 final tonight, putting a couple of million on his price tag and Everton out of the running, assuming we were in there in the first place.

| Veteran Inter and Denmark defender Thomas Helveg, is the latest player to be linked with a move to the Blues. Tommy Grav's International team mate, is on the brink of leaving Italian giants Inter Milan, and apparently Moyesy is in a queue of managers waiting to sell their club to him.The Grav has assured him if he comes to the Blues, he will be speaking like a true Scouser within a fortnight. Tommy Helveg says: "I will not continue. In a couple of weeks, it will be decided what I will do in the future. I have not talked with my agent yet but, after all, I have only got three more days remaining on my Inter contract. To end my career elsewhere could be a new challenge." (29/06/04) Blue

| The prick's just signed for Charlton.(10/08/04) After Spurs and the shite agreeing a £3m fee, the deal as fell through because it was thought that Danny was insisting on a regular place. Everton and Charlton are expecting to go for him. A Spurs chappie says:"We have now withdrawn from these negotiations following a meeting with the player. We acknowledge that a guaranteed first team place was a deciding factor in his decision and wish him well." (10/08/04) Rumours flying around Merseyside that the redshite midfielder is not fancied by their new manager and they have to sell to get the new players he wants. Murphy wants to stay in the area so hence the rumour. (26/06/04) Blue
