Everton news: BBC Sport transfer window Q&A

BBC Sport chief football news reporter Simon Stone is answering your questions on the summer transfer window.

Adam asked: Will David Moyes have money to spend this summer, or are Everton, and other non ‘big six’ clubs, held back by the two-tier PSR rules?

Simon answered: I think this summer will be fascinating for Everton. To answer your substantive point, they will be held back by the rules because they have made losses that clearly put them in P&S trouble historically and they are still being worked through.

Also, while the costs involved in building the new stadium have been refinanced in a much less onerous way, they still have to be paid and the benefits, such as increased matchday revenue, are only just starting to be felt in terms of season ticket sales. If their approach at Roma is any guide, the Friedkin Group would presumably be keen to spend big this summer. However, that seems unlikely without player sales.

In addition, that is not David Moyes’ approach. It sounds boring, and it might not be what you want to hear, but I think if Everton can remain quietly in mid-table next season, that would get them to a point where they can really kick on in 2026-27.
