According to Alan Nixon, Everton wants Dominic Calvert-Lewin to sign a new contract this summer but will sell him if he declines.

Following a successful campaign finale, the newspaper journalist revealed on his Patreon page on May 19 that Sean Dyche wants him committed to a new contract.

The Toffees will try to sell him if he declines a contract offer as Farhad Moshiri tries to allay worries over money.

Although Calvert-Lewin is a player the team wishes to keep, they would be willing to let him go in the summer transfer window if necessary.

Is Dominic Calvert-Lewin up for sale at Everton?

The Englishman has been the Toffees’ greatest striker option for several seasons under different managers, despite his injury issues.

Even though Dyche signed Yousef Chermiti and Beto this season, his influence was evident as Premier League safety was verified with plenty of time remaining.

Calvert-Lewin scored a dream goal on a perfect day at Goodison Park as a Merseyside derby win was secured against Liverpool.

With just one game remaining of the season, the striker has scored seven and assisted two across 25 starts and six substitute appearances [FotMob].

Although this may not be the strongest return, he has spent a lot of time injured or returning to match fitness while playing.

To maintain some continuity in his team, Dyche must persuade Calvert-Lewin to continue since his contract is about to expire.

It might be challenging to replace the Englishman given the struggles of previous attackers who have relocated to Goodison Park.

In other Everton news, Farhad Moshiri’s desire to sell has given the current Everton takeover development a competitive auction element.
