Last week we brought you the news that Joseph Yobo was to complete a move to Fenerbahce, however as we understand it this deal is no closer to going through and is now hanging in the balance. Everton are believed to be holding out for £4m whilst Fener would prefer to pay only £3m. Yobo is said to be very keen on the move and with seemingly no other bidders Everton may have to lower their demands or risk the deal collapsing.

We also understand that Everton will use the money from this sale, together any money brought in from the sale of Yakubu and the sale of James Vaughan to Norwich City to finance a move for Wigan Athletic midfielder Charles N’Zogbia.

Meanwhile in other transfer news Everton are reportedly interested in a loan move for Manchester City defender Dedryck Boyata, a move that the player himself is keen on.

However one move that does not look like happening is Demba Ba, the striker’s wage demands have made a deal with Everton difficult and it is unlikely he will sign unless he lowers them.
