 Welcome to Toffy TV, it is the Everton News Daily. Everton have not taken the option on Connor Cody. There was a deal for £4.5 million with Wolves, which needed to be taken up by last night, basically, and Everton haven't done that. They've released the player back to Wolves. Player put a very classy message on Instagram saying how much of an honour basically it was to play for Everton. I know a lot of people are disappointed with this because they probably thought he was an ideal player, especially with Yeti Meena coming in. I think it's one of them, isn't it? Maybe you haven't had a little bit more time. Maybe you need to think about a little bit more or see how things turn out with other players. But I just think at the beginning of the window and with the limited budget I haven't got, not knowing who's going to be at the club, who do you can sell. I think it's a little bit too early to commit that kind of money, even though it would seem like low money. He is 30 and it is thought that John Dice is going to look for more power and pace throughout the side. Obviously we've got Gerard Branthwy coming back from PSV as well. We have already three other centre backs at the club as well, who we would need to get rid of. There is talk today that Everton may like to offload either Mason Horgate or Ben Godfrey. We'll have to wait and see, but until you offload them then you can't really carry those extra players. Who knows maybe Everton if time ticks on. Conor Codd is still at Walls. Maybe things fall the right way. They might go back for them. Obviously they wouldn't be £4.5 million. But Everton might be banking on that. Everton might be thinking that the price might actually go down if they leave it longer. Apparently Sheffield United are interested in Conor Codd who played for them on loan earlier in his career. He might be tempted by that, especially if he gets maybe a three-year deal or something like that, but we'll have to wait and see. Ruben Van Agra has also gone back to his pairing club. Obviously he barely played for Everton this season so that's no real shock. But that means that Everton will need a left back next season as well. I'm sure Everton will be exploring the loan market or certainly the free transfers around European football. It might be a case that Everton can't this summer go mad on transfers with everything the way it is. But certainly that loan market or certainly the free transfers, if Everton have already had a good look, there's potential to offer people decent money that they might not earn in other countries. That Premier League wage might entitle for you to come to Everton and fill in the gaps rather than spending £4.5 million on a 30-year-old. It's disappointing to see Conor Codd go. He was a real character around the club and he did well. But obviously when Sean Daish came in, he obviously made his mind up after I think it was four games, put Michael Keane in and then he only played the last game of the season. So very disappointing for him but as a club we'll just have to see how everything plays out for the rest of the summer and hopefully we can get people in sooner rather than later. Talking of plays coming in Everton have been linked with Thorgan Hazard. He's got one year left on his deal at Dortmund. He's been on loan at PSV this year. A 30-year-old, I can't see this personally. Maybe he was a free then you would have a little look at him but I can't see it. There's money, there's £25 million being bandied about not a chance on Earth Everton are going near anybody this summer for that kind of money. Unless it's a young centre forward who scores goals and we can pay it on the trip over five years, there is not a chance on Earth. We will go anywhere near anyone for that kind of money. That's just a link that's been thrown about today. I mentioned yesterday about the FAB meeting taking place last night. No Everton board members were at the meeting. Again, I spoke about this yesterday. It does show a real disconnect and some would say disrespect that the board members were in there last night. We'll have to wait and see what the fan advisory board do with that and how they use that to move forward. Very, very poor I think from the football club not to send a representative. Considering it's not exactly a fan meeting in a pub or something like that. This is something that the fan advisory board has put together because the club believed it was the right way to go for them now not to turn up to meetings. It's very, very poor indeed. We'll have to wait and see what the response is from the FAB going forward. Yesterday there is a protest on Saturday at the live of buildings at 11 o'clock where fans are looking to obviously voice their concerns over the situation at the football club. A lot of people probably thought that things would have changed by now but I think until investment comes into the club it will stay as it is. There's a lot of rumours obviously on the investment front but we'll just have to wait until everything is sorted I imagine until we get any kind of clarification. There you go.
