Everton may have a thin squad at the moment due to some massive injuries, but that hasn’t stopped them from discussing the future of a certain midfielder. A Russian club is keen on bringing his pace to their squad, and their prepared to offer Everton £6.25m in return. Those funds could go towards a new midfielder or striker!

Pienaar has been a serviceable player during his time at Everton, but I think most would agree that £6.25m could probably help in their pursuit of possibly making Joao Moutinho a realistic transfer target this summer.

What do supporters think? Is £6.25m enough to make Pienaar a “former” Everton player?
