In a recent interview with La Capitale, Everton midfielder Amadou Onana gave an update on his future with the Merseyside team. In January, Onana said he wouldn’t rule out leaving Everton.
I won’t say that representing my country on a team is what motivates me the most since I take my duty to ensure Everton’s survival very seriously.
But I have to admit that the presence of a team with excellent players has altered the atmosphere. It really supports my mental health.ENGLAND’S LIVERPOOL, 30 SEPTEMBER: On September 30, 2023, in Liverpool, England, during the Premier League game between Everton FC and Luton Town at Goodison Park, Everton’s Amadou Onana claps for the crowd.

By averaging 2.8 tackles, 0.5 interceptions, 0.8 clearances, 1.4 shoots, and 0.9 crucial passes per 90 minutes in the Premier League, the Belgian star has effectively anchored the midfield. After successfully completing 84.2% of his attempted passes in the English top division, he has even spread possession reasonably well (statistics from whoscored).
What ought Dyche to do in relation to Onana?
Onana may make a few crucial interceptions for his team in the middle of the field because he is a skilled ball defender. He typically generates a lot of venom with his shooting attempts and doesn’t mind putting his foot into the ball when necessary.
The Belgian sensation can even make some good plays for those around him, but the Premier League requires more consistency from him.At the moment, Onana remains an important member of Sean Dyche’s first XI. Hence, the Everton head coach simply cannot afford to lose him in the upcoming January transfer window. The Toffees should at least look to keep hold of him until next summer before deciding on his future.
