Fenerbahce are reportedly eager to strengthen José Mourinho’s squad and will pursue the signing of 27-year-old Dominic Calvert-Lewin, provided the former Manchester United and Chelsea manager gives his approval. The Turkish club is chasing all three domestic trophies, including the league, and views Calvert-Lewin as a potential replacement for Cenk Tosun.
Everton, meanwhile, must begin searching for strikers to fill the void if Calvert-Lewin departs in January. This could be their last opportunity to sell him for a transfer fee before he becomes a free agent. Interest from Fenerbahce, especially if Mourinho supports the move, could result in a significant fee, which Everton could reinvest in younger, versatile players—similar to their acquisition of Iliman Ndiaye, a modern forward with agility, goal-scoring ability, and versatility across the front line.
Under new ownership, Everton likely has plans in place for long-term squad development. This potential move would not only address the immediate gap left by Calvert-Lewin but also improve team dynamics by reducing reliance on a single striker. It remains to be seen where Calvert-Lewin will go and whether Everton will secure a replacement during the January transfer window.
