Everton are reportedly in the hunt to sign Liam Delap from Chelsea for around £40 million, as the Blues push for a sale of the underperforming striker. Delap, who joined Chelsea in 2025 for £30 million, has struggled mightily — scoring just one Premier League goal in 28 appearances last season — and has been sidelined by new manager Xabi Alonso, who’s stripped him of the No. 9 shirt and moved him to separate training. Despite interest from Forest and Leeds, Delap’s preference to stay in England puts Everton in the driver’s seat — though the £40m price tag feels like a massive gamble for a player with such poor stats, especially given Everton’s financial constraints.
