According to the Leicester Mercury, Premier League clubs are reportedly showing interest in Abdul Fatawu, and Leicester City bosses will apparently maintain a strong position against any bids from Everton this winter. When asked how City would approach interest in the player, manager Cifuentes said there is always a strategy and a plan, adding that Abdul is a very important player for Leicester City. Cifuentes also said that to his knowledge, nothing has changed, but he would not completely rule out a sale for Fatawu this month.

Everton are interested in 21-year-old Ghanaian winger Abdul Fatawu, who had a disrupted 2024/25 season due to an ACL injury but is now back to full fitness. Fatawu scored six goals and provided 13 assists in 40 Championship appearances in the 2023/24 season. He is contracted with Leicester until 2029. His current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt at €11 million.
