Everton had expressed interest in selling their center back in January.

Sources have verified to 90min that a number of Premier League teams, including Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United, are interested in signing Everton defender Ben Godfrey.

This season, Godfrey has fallen down the Goodison Park hierarchy, as Sean Dyche favors players like James Tarkowski, Michael Keane, and Jarrad Branthwaite at center defense. This season, he has only played one minute of Premier League football, entering the game late as the Toffees drew 2-2 with Sheffield United.

Because of this, the 25-year-old is no longer even considered for England, despite having received two senior caps and been included in their preliminary roster for the 2021 European Championship. Godfrey is eager to jumpstart his struggling premier league career once more, and Everton is now open to bids for him.

90min is aware that Godfrey is a longtime admirer of Tottenham and Newcastle, two teams who are interested in adding defensive reinforcements, partly because of injury concerns.
