# Everton: Fans fume over Luuk Kluiters transfer revelation

**Many Everton fans have been left raging over a transfer revelation on Luuk Kluiters.**

Writing on his [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/) story (via [The Toffee Blues](https://twitter.com/TheToffeeBlues/status/1433056063704731654)), the central defender revealed that he made a deal with the Goodison Park faithful a couple of weeks ago, but was not able to get a work permit.

That meant that the deal was abandoned, and he has now signed for LOSC Lille in Ligue 1 instead.

Supporters never like to hear that their club was close to a signing before it collapsed, and it certainly seems like the Merseyside outfit have missed out on a target Rafael Benitez wanted.

Kluiters has played in a total of eight games over all competitions for AZ Alkmaar’s U17’s ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/luuk-kluiters/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/675392)), and at just 18 years of age, the Dutchman has a lot of potential.
