Dynamo Kyiv’s owner, Igor Surkis, has said that Andriy Yarmolenko won’t be going anywhere this month because he wants to keep the 26-year-old on board for the remainder of his club’s Champions League run.
Though the report doesn’t carry any direct quotes, that’s the claim in The Mirror who say that Everton are still interested in signing Yarmolenko but will have to wait until the summer.
Recent speculation had it that the Blues were prepared to offer 21m for the Ukrainian international after Yarmolenko himself said that his situation hasn’t changed: i.e. he has an agreement with the Kyiv supremo that he can leave to join a club in a “bigger league” provided Dynamo receive a “suitable offer.”
Meanwhile, there are reports that Arsenal have entered the race to sign him and could offer 25m this month to prise Yarmolenko away.
Elsewhere, another reported Everton target, Iaki Williams has signed a new contract at Atletico Madrid, putting an end to those transfer stories linking him with a move to Goodison Park.
And Chelsea’s Bertrand Traore, mooted as a possible loan signing this month for Roberto Martinez, looks likely to join Marseille on loan.
