An “agreement” has been reached for an electrifying Championship winger, and Everton is closing in on their fourth signing.
According to reports, Everton is getting closer to signing Hull City winger Jaden Philogene, despite opposition from Ipswich Town, Crystal Palace, and other teams.
With agreements now in place for Tim Iroegbunam (£9 million), Iliman Ndiaye (£16.9 million), and Jack Harrison (loan), the Toffees have had a successful start to the transfer season.

Even though Jarrad Branthwaite, Amadou Onana, and Dominic Calvert-Lewin have all been strongly connected to departures, they have managed to keep onto their top players thus far.
Everton is sure they will win the competition for Philogene after agreeing on a deal with Hull, as sources exclusively told TEAMtalk transfer journalist Fraser (Fletcher) Gillan on Monday.
Now, Paul Joyce of The Times has confirmed what we were told, writing on X that the Toffees’ £16 million bid for the gifted 22-year-old had been approved.
This comes after Berto Camacho, the player’s agent, was sighted visiting Finch Farm, Everton’s training facility.
One of Sean Dyche’s top priorities is to sign a new winger, and Kevin Thelwell, the sporting director of Everton, has been working hard to get a deal done for Philogene.
“Everton believe Philogene wants to join them,” asserts Joyce. Although there is still competition from other Premier League teams, it appears that the winger has decided to go to Goodison Park.
