Manolas rejects Everton switch

 

AEK Athens defender Kostas Manolas has rejected a move to Everton, despite the Blues agreeing a fee with the Greek giants believed to be in the region of £500k.

David Moyes is desperate to bolster his defensive ranks given the injuries to stalwarts Phil Jagielka and Sylvain Distin but Manolas will not be moving to Merseyside during this tranfer window.

Stavros Adamidis, the president of AEK Athens, confirmed: ‘Manolas is staying. We had told the player that if he and Everton agreed terms we wouldn’t stand between them. It didn’t happen’

    Must of read the Moyes comments about him ‘not being ready’, might be best to conclude the deal before opening ones mouth.

    How about tight-arse kenwright offering the same wages as what he gets in greece or even less? That’s the most likely outcome in my eyes!

  3. ArryArse says:

    we all have to agree though, that everton need several more defenders.

    in fact if the whole team was made up of defenders moyes still wouldn’t be happy.
