WHAT HAPPENED
Everton and Crystal Palace have agreed on a swap deal that will see winger Dwight McNeil move to the Eagles, while Wales international Brennan Johnson will head to Toffees' training ground. The exchange was confirmed by BBC Sport on Thursday evening, marking the first major transfer move between the clubs in the current season.
According to the BBC, the deal will involve McNeil's transfer to Palace with Johnson returning to Everton. While the report did not disclose financial details, both clubs have confirmed that the players will switch shirts for the next campaign. No quotes from the players or managers were provided in the announcement, and the clubs said the swap could help fill gaps in their attacking lines as the Premier League season progresses.
Such swaps are relatively rare in modern English football and could signal a strategic move by both clubs to address specific squad needs. McNeil, who has struggled for regular minutes at Everton, is expected to bring pace to Palace’s wing, while Johnson’s experience in the Premier League may be valued by Everton’s defensive setup.
- Everton and Crystal Palace agree a player swap: McNeil to Palace, Johnson to Everton.
