A £60 million boost to Everton might speed up the deal process

Everton's academy has produced players who have been sold for transactions totaling almost £60 million this year so far, providing an essential source of funding amid general unrest. The sale of two academy graduates may have improved Everton's ability to pay for a roster revamp. Ishe Samuels-Smith and Ellis Simms have recently left the club in multi-million-pound agreements. Despite the fact that the first team roster is in severe need of strengthening, their departures are the only transactions Everton has made this summer. 

They occur in the midst of a significant shake-up in the boardroom and broader doubt about the club's capacity to compete in the transfer market following several years of significant losses. Both transactions are advantageous to Everton and may act as a recruitment booster as they begin to upgrade the squad for the upcoming season.
