Exclusive: Tim Iroegbunam undergoing Everton medical today
Aston Villa midfielder Tim Iroegbunam will undergo a medical at Everton on Thursday, sources have told Football Insider.
Football Insider exclusively revealed on 18 June the Merseyside giants have had a bid accepted for the 20-year-old.
Sources say there is now a full agreement in place over personal terms and the transfer fee as the England U-20 international prepares to make his move to Goodison Park.
The cost of the transfer will be around £10million as Sean Dyche looks to add to his midfield options for next season.
Iroegbunam is now expected to sign for Everton barring any late unexpected twists in the deal.
Tim Iroegbunam set to make Everton move as medical booked
Iroegbunam has seen his first-team opportunities limited at Villa Park since joining the club from West Brom in 2021.
The midfielder spent the 2022-23 season out on loan with Championship side Queens Park Rangers, where he scored four goals and laid on four assists in 32 appearances.
Although Iroegbunam played 15 games for Unai Emery’s side last season, he only started in two of those matches.
But the youngster did feature home and away against Ajax in the Europa Conference League – a tie Villa won 4-0 on aggregate.
Football Insider revealed in March the Dutch giants held an interest in Iroegbunam, but Everton now look poised to win the race for his signature.
Villa are looking to raise cash as they are believed to be on the limit of their allowable profit and sustainability (PSR) losses.
Football Insider revealed earlier this month the West Midlands giants must bring in £60million in player sales this summer.
