Kampusbet ~ Roberto Martinez admits Everton cannot stop Barcelona re-signing Gerard Deulofeu
Agen Klik4D ~ Everton boss Roberto Martinez has again warned that Chelsea and the rest of the predators are wasting their breath even asking about his young stars.
But he did admit there is one exception to that emphatic rule – because there is nothing he can do about it.
Martinez has completely ruled out any chance of John Stones moving to Stamford Bridge in January, and explained the same applies to the likes of Ross Barkley, Romelu Lukaku and Seamus Coleman.
But in the case of winger Gerard Deulofeu, who has been a revelation in recent weeks, Martinez admitted there is nothing he can do to stop Barcelona snatching him back.
The Spanish club only sold the 21-year-old to Everton
in the summer, but they inserted a buy-back clause which allows them to
re-sign him at the end of the season for a fee of around £6m, should
they so choose.
That would represent a profit for the Blues.
Martinez tried
to paint a brave picture when he said: “There is nothing we can do if
they activate it.
That was the deal and the only way we could access the
player in the terms that we wanted.
"I’m delighted with the deal.
“They can’t sell him on at a higher price. There are certain things in the deal.
"They can’t take him back in the winter so they can’t take him back in January. It can only be at the end of the season.
“If they take him back, they can’t sell him for a season. So he has to stay in the first team squad for a season.

the end of that, if they decide to sell him, we have got first rights
of getting him back, or we have got a big percentage of that.”
Deulofeu put in a fine performance at West Ham then hit FIVE goals for Spain U21 in two matches after assuming the captaincy of his country.
That has put him back on Barca’s radar - and Martinez is not surprised.
“He
has gone to a different level," he said. “If I showed you the stats
against West Ham, you wouldn’t believe them. He had more high intensity
off the ball than on it.
That is the first time ever since he has been in professional football.
“I’m not worried about it, though. My worry would be to lose him in January.
"For
us to have him, a quality player, for the money that we paid, if we
lose him it will be on a profit financially so we would be able to use
the money.
“You’re talking about a Barcelona player who has been
all through his years as the golden boy believing he is going to be at
the top level at Barcelona and we got him for a very good price.”
However Martinez said he CAN do something about the rest of his young stars.
“None of our best players will be leaving in January – I’m not worried at all,” the Spanish coach insisted.
“We
are not in a position where we have to make financial decisions or
worry about balancing the books, and our only concern is about
continuity, and developing the best we can.
“Our focus is on being as strong as we can together and keeping the continuity.
“We
don’t look on it as a window to be really involved, whether buying or
selling... it’s more a matter of continuity. It’s about developing
competition for places between the ones we already have.”
