Will Everton be able to find a club to purchase Cenk Tosun in the summer?No, not with the injury
Yes, Brands will manage |
During his loan spell with the Eagles, Tosun has featured in five Premier League appearances, during which he has bagged one goal and zero assists (per Transfermarkt).
According to the Liverpool Echo, the Toffees value the 28-year-old forward at £20 million and were planning on shipping him out permanently in the summer, however, the injury may have dented those plans slightly.
Everton, that.

What do we think?
With the Turkish striker, who is valued at £13.5 million (Transfermarkt), having been the third-worst performer of the players who have featured for Everton in the Premier League this term, with an average rating of 6.31/10 (per WhoScored), it is clear to see why fans are not keen on Tosun staying at Goodison Park.
Having been the eighth-worst performer for Palace in the Premier League, though, with a 6.47/10 average rating (per WhoScored), it may not have been likely that they would have taken Tosun off the Toffees’ books anyway.
