Everton Alerted As £20m-rated 20-Year-Old Is Told To Leave In Shock Twist: Should Moyes Go For Him?

Everton have been alerted to a potential transfer opportunity after Barcelona told Héctor Fort he can leave this summer, according to Graeme Bailey. Everton and Fulham are monitoring the 20-year-old, while Inter Milan is also interested. Barcelona would prefer a permanent sale to raise funds rather than approve another loan. Fort spent 2025/26 at Elche, making 14 LaLiga appearances and scoring twice with two assists in 482 league minutes; he started seven matches. Despite gaining senior experience, the report says Fort may face limited first-team chances at Camp Nou, creating room for clubs offering clearer roles. The article frames the move as timely given Everton’s right-back uncertainty after Seamus Coleman’s hamstring injury, and David Moyes’ need for a long-term option.
