£80k-a-week Sean Dyche favourite attracting serious interest from Qatar amid uncertain Everton future

Everton are going through a really difficult spell in the Premier League at the moment.

The Toffees were held to a goalless draw against Brentford on the weekend and it was the third successive match in which they’ve failed to score in.

That’s put Sean Dyche under major pressure with supporters urging the club to bring David Moyes back to Goodison Park.

Though, Alan Myers has revealed Everton are fully behind Dyche, so he is expected to see out his contract until the end of the season.

That means he’s set to be afforded the January transfer window to bring in much-needed attacking reinforcements.

However, Everton may have to sell-to-buy and with that said, one of their key players is attracting serious interest abroad.

Al-Duhail SC want Idrissa Gueye

According to Africa Foot, Qatari side Al-Duhail SC are showing a serious interest in Idrissa Gueye ahead of the January transfer window.

Gueye’s contract at Goodison Park expires at the end of the season and that’s alerted a number of potential suitors.

Al-Duhail SC have positioned themselves at the front of the queue and are prepared to offer him an extremely lucrative contract.

However, any potential departure isn’t expected to transpire until next summer – when he is available on a free transfer.

Everton should allow the old guard to move on

As good as Gueye has been, he’s not getting any younger and next summer feels like the appropriate time to allow him to leave along with the rest of the old guard.

Everton have the oldest average-aged squad in the Premier League and that simply has to change over the next 12 months – otherwise, it could cost them their top-flight status.

The squad needs a major rebuild and given Gueye earns a handsome £80,000-a-week, it doesn’t seem like a smart idea to renew that deal – funds could be better invested in a young version of him.
