Former Arsenal forward Alex Iwobi inked a five-year deal with Everton on transfer deadline day, a move which has left WilfriedZaha devastated after his deadline-day hopes of leaving Crystal Palace to join the Toffees were dashed.
Everton made several bids for the Eagles’ star forward the last of which was reported to be a £55 million cash deal plus striker CenkTosun but Palace refused to sanction the move, even after the Ivorian submitted a transfer request.
Everton swiftly moved for Alex Iwobi instead with an improved bid of £35million landing the Goodison Park landlords the Nigeria playmaker.
