Everton had a bid worth £20m plus add-ons rejected for the Udinese striker Beto Betuncal. The 25-year-old’s release clause is in excess of £30m but Everton refused to increase their offer and, with no time to find a replacement, the Italian club refused to lower their valuation.
A loan move for Watford’s Ismaïla Sarr was rejected, despite Everton proposing an obligation to buy the Senegal international in the event of staying up.
Southampton completed an £18m deal for the Genk forward Paul Onuachu, who had been offered to Everton while Michy Batshuayi reportedly rejected the chance to move to Goodison.
Conor Gallagher did not want to leave Chelsea for a relegation struggle while a late move for the Crystal Palace forward Jean-Philippe Mateta also failed.
