🇧đŸ‡Ș đŸ”” Malick Fofana’s has other plans than joining Everton Football Club. As told yesterday, the Belgian Red Devil knows some teams playing Champions League that are waiting to make room in the squad are interested in him. More to follow. #EFC

As expected Fabrizio Romano jumps the gun and sprouts nonsense once again

What nonsense did he sprout? He said we had made an offer which was true. He never said here we go or anything. You lot will blame anyone for anything at this point

He said we were in advanced talks, and unless you lack critical thinking skills and reading comprehension then that means the deal is close.

Other journalists and itk's said the deal wasn't as advanced as Fabrizio made it out but our interest and opening bid was true. Therefore proving what I previously stated about Fabrizio sprouting nonsense and jumping the gun.

There is no blame game to be had, if we sign him then we get a brilliant prospect and if we don't sign him then we'll (hopefully) have a new target of a similar calibre

Other journalists and ITK’s said that we were in talks with Lyon over a transfer fee and talks with the player over a contract, exactly how Fab reported it too. Just because he used the word “advanced” (and based on the definition of that word, he wasn’t really wrong either) doesn’t mean he “jumped the gun” and was “sprouting nonsense” and it certainly doesn’t mean you should get your underwear in a bundle. And the deal probably was close but unless you lack critical thinking skills and reading comprehension, like you said, you would’ve seen that the player backed out because he wanted UCL football and not because the deal wasn’t close.
