Clock ticks down on Calvert-Lewin

Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin is a name that has been doing the rounds on deadline day, but there is still no movement there.

Newcastle United could not get a deal done earlier in the window while Chelsea considered the English forward, as he enters the final year of his contract with no indication so far that he will sign a new one.

Chelsea and Ivory Coast forward David Datro Fofana had been mentioned as a makeweight but Everton were not biting on that, even though they need the money and risk losing Calvert-Lewin on a free next summer.

Straight cash will also be no good to Everton, as it would leave them with no time to find a replacement for one of their few threats in a goal-shy team.

With Chelsea still on the hunt for Napoli's Victor Osimhen, and Ivan Toney seemingly heading to Saudi Arabia, could the Blues make another late move for Calvert-Lewin if they fail to land their top target?
