Dominic Calvert-Lewin has taken a decisive step in his search for a new club by parting company with his agent, leaving the 28-year-old striker weighing his next move in the Premier League. TalkSport reports he is \u201cin talks with Manchester United, Newcastle United, and Leeds United.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cCalvert-Lewin remains without a new club for the upcoming season,\u201d TalkSport reports, with Leeds keeping him in mind should their pursuit of Fulham\u2019s Rodrigo Muniz fall through. Muniz scored eight Premier League goals for Fulham last season, and Leeds\u2019 interest is said to depend on that transfer outcome.<\/p>\n
There has been transfer interest across the top flight. Sunderland showed ambition in trying to sign him, but the forward is believed to favour a club higher up the Premier League ladder. \u201cHe is keen to keep his options open.\u201d Sunderland have since turned to Chelsea\u2019s Marc Guiu on loan. Aston Villa and Chelsea have also been linked in wider reporting.<\/p>\n
Calvert-Lewin left Goodison Park this summer after nine years, having scored 71 goals in 273 games for Everton. He arrived from Sheffield United in 2016 and registered 57 Premier League goals, the third-highest total in Everton\u2019s history. His best season came in 2020\/21 when he was voted the club\u2019s Player of the Season after netting 21 goals in all competitions. A notable career moment came in 2021\/22 when he scored the winner against Crystal Palace to secure Everton\u2019s survival.<\/p>\n
Injuries have interrupted recent campaigns, including a hamstring problem that kept him out for much of last spring. He has 11 England caps and last featured at Euro 2020 in the quarter-final win over Ukraine. It appears unlikely he will sign before the new Premier League season kicks off, but a move could revive both his club prospects and international ambitions.<\/p>\n
From a sporting perspective, the decision balances clear upside in experience and aerial presence against genuine concerns over fitness and availability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
