Everton have agreed to send Mason Holgate on loan to Southampton but there are doubts over Che Adams’ move to Goodison Park after MSP Capital’s investment deal collapsed
Everton have agreed to send Mason Holgate on loan to Southampton but a deal for Che Adams to move in the opposite direction has not been struck.
Everton have been close to agreeing a package for Adams worth approximately £15 million. However, the recent collapse of Everton’s investment deal with MSP Capital has created financial uncertainty for the club, leading to concerns about the initial down payment for the Southampton striker.
Holgate’s departure from Everton on a temporary basis is expected to be confirmed in the near future. The 26-year-old defender is travelling to the south coast on Friday to undergo a medical with Championship promotion hopefuls Southampton, reports the Liverpool ECHO.
Holgate’s move comes after he was given permission by Everton to leave either on loan or permanently during the summer transfer window. He has yet to feature in the Premier League this season and struggled for regular game time last season under manager Sean Dyche.
