Everton Negotiates for Villarreal Striker Thierno Barry

News summary

Everton have entered advanced negotiations with Villarreal to sign 22-year-old striker Thierno Barry, who scored 11 goals and provided four assists in his breakout La Liga season after joining from FC Basel last summer. The club is seeking to enhance its attacking options amid uncertainty over Dominic Calvert-Lewin's future, and is considering activating Barry's €40 million release clause, though negotiations for a lower fee continue. Barry is currently representing France at the UEFA European Under-21 Championship, which complicates immediate transfer proceedings and increases competition from other interested clubs. Both Everton and Barry are reportedly keen on the move. Barry's rapid rise in European football, marked by his pace and intelligence, fits Everton's pursuit of a dynamic, long-term attacking solution. The club remains optimistic about securing the transfer to address their attacking needs.
