Aït Nouri out of Maresca's plans: January departure draws closer

American tech mogul Michael Dell has publicly dismissed speculation suggesting he is preparing a bid to purchase Everton from current majority owners The Friedkin Group. Worth an estimated £183 billion, the world's fourth-richest man took to social media on Wednesday evening to shut down claims that his family wants to buy the Merseysiders.

David Moyes has thrown his full support behind Everton's decision to omit Jack Grealish from the squad following a significant breach of club discipline. The England international was a high-profile absentee from the Toffees' Carabao Cup victory over Newcastle United after reportedly failing to attend training without permission.

Everton manager David Moyes omitted Manchester City loanee Jack Grealish from his matchday squad for a disciplinary infraction before watching his side claim a 3-1 victory over Newcastle United on Thursday night. Despite the England winger's absence at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, the Merseysiders comfortably advanced into the last eight of the Carabao Cup.

Newcastle United's Carabao Cup journey ended in disappointment at the Hill Dickinson Stadium following a 3-1 defeat to Everton. Despite dominating possession, the Magpies were undone by clinical finishing before Dan Burn netted a late consolation.

Liverpool will host Bournemouth in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals, while holders Manchester City take on League One side Bradford City. Fleetwood Town, who knocked Arsenal out on penalties, will welcome Everton or Newcastle United, and Crystal Palace face Sunderland in an all-Premier League tie, with all four games set for the week commencing December 14.

Premier League sides Everton and Crystal Palace have been handed a major transfer boost ahead of the winter market as Italian outfit Lecce prepare to listen to offers for prized centre-back Tiago Gabriel. Despite tying the 21-year-old defender down until 2030, the Serie A club are willing to sanction his departure in the new year.

A rare goalscoring phenomenon!

Mikel Arteta hit out at Arsenal’s ‘terrible’ schedule after his much-changed side beat Everton 2-0 to draw level with Manchester City at the top of the Premier League. The win came less than three days after a draining trip to Munich, and the Gunners are still counting the cost of that game, with Bukayo Saka facing up to 12 matches out with a quad injury.

Ezri Konsa has laid down a marker for Arsenal's title credentials, insisting that consistent winning is the only path to glory after the Gunners moved level with Manchester City. The defender enjoyed a landmark afternoon at the Emirates, opening his account for the club in a dominant 2-0 victory over Everton that capitalised on City's 2-1 defeat at Aston Villa.
