According to the Liverpool Echo, Everton has given Dominic Calvert-Lewin a new deal to ward off transfer interest from Newcastle.
Eddie Howe, an Everton lad from childhood, wants to lure the England international to St. James’ Park, according to a press story published on May 30.
Representatives for Calvert-Lewin and the Toffees are in talks, but no new agreement has been reached as of yet.
Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin could leave for Newcastle
With Newcastle showing interest, Calvert-Lewin finds himself in a crucial situation as the Toffees extend an offer of a new deal to him.
The Englishman must now balance the advantages of staying at Everton against the possible opportunities at Newcastle in order to make his decision.
The Merseyside team’s eagerness to keep the striker highlights how important he is to them, as evidenced by their willingness to negotiate a new contract.
But, Sean Dyche’s team wouldn’t suffer a catastrophic loss if Calvert-Lewin chose to join Newcastle.
The club could command a substantial transfer fee for the England international, given his talent and experience.
