Here are three Everton players who could be heading for Goodison exit.

The January transfer window generally doesn’t see too many arrivals or departures at a club because there’s a risk of disturbing the team equilibrium. In terms of departures, players who are often excluded or do not feature in the manager’s plans are either loaned or sold. Everton have a handful of such players who do not fit into the plans or have a desire to move elsewhere for better playing opportunities.

Everton also have a lot of deadwood in their team, players who are never going to feature under Carlo Ancelotti and need to be sold or loaned to lighten the load on the wage budget. When Ancelotti arrived at Everton, he was expected to completely rebuild the squad.

The Italian boss has been able to lure some mega names such as James Rodriguez and Allan. However, this Ancelotti revolution won’t just include bringing quality signings but also emphasize on discarding players that are no longer required at Goodison Park.

Theo Walcott was loaned to Southampton and Sandro Ramirez left Everton for free on the transfer deadline day in the summer. The January transfer window may also see multiple exits. Here are 3 players likely to leave Everton in January transfer window.
