King urges player to choose Everton over Crystal Palace following Fabrizio Romano update
Bryan King has encouraged Jaden Philogene to consider a transfer to Everton following recent updates.
Former Goodison scout Bryan King believes Hull City forward Jaden Philogene should consider a move to Goodison Park. According to Fabrizio Romano via Playback (6 July), Everton, Ipswich Town, and Crystal Palace have all agreed on terms with Hull for Philogene’s transfer. The 22-year-old is expected to make a decision about his future soon (Romano, 5 July).
Speaking exclusively to Goodison News, King shared his thoughts on Philogene’s options. “I think Everton would be a favorable destination without a doubt,” King said. “Although with the way Crystal Palace played last season, they must be of interest. He is lucky to have three decent clubs to pick between.
“Palace have some England internationals, which Philogene should consider. Playing for the Eagles could enhance his chances of featuring for the Three Lions. However, if I were him, I would pick Everton, and that is what I would advise him to do.”
Philogene faces a tough decision. With Ipswich Town newly promoted to the Premier League, he might believe this is where he will get the most first-team minutes. However, Palace is attractive for young forwards known to thrive there. Everton, arguably the biggest of the three clubs, could sway Philogene towards Goodison Park. Supporters are anxiously waiting to see where he ends up
In other Everton news, the Toffees will let one player leave the club if a transfer is completed.
