# Everton: Fans rage over Ross Barkley transfer news

**Lots of Everton fans have been left raging at some transfer news that has emerged on Ross Barkley.**

As per [The Daily Telegraph](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2021/12/28/transfer-notebook-everton-eye-loan-move-chelseas-ross-barkley/?utm_content=football&utm_medium=Social&utm_campaign=Echobox&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1640698609), the Goodison Park faithful are now interested in signing their former player on loan until the end of the season.

This has not gone down well with a lot of Merseyside club supporters, given the way he left for Chelsea back in 2018, when he rejected a new deal and a £30m move to Stamford Bridge, only to move for just £15m a few months after ([BBC](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/42574404)).

Barkley was one of their own, coming through the [Toffees Academy](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ross-barkley/transfers/spieler/131978), and ended up playing 179 games for the senior side, scoring 27 goals and making a further 29 assists in total over all competitions ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ross-barkley/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/131978/plus/0?saison=&verein=29&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=)).

However, his [numbers](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ross-barkley/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/131978/plus/0?saison=&verein=631&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) at Chelsea have been far from impressive since, and added to the bitterness that surrounded the club when he left, it would surely be wise for the Blues to look elsewhere.
