# Everton: Fans don’t fancy their chances in getting a firm offer for Theo Walcott

**According to the Daily Mirror via [HITC](https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2020/03/29/report-everton-think-they-can-sign-8-figure-player-for-just-8m-h/), Theo Walcott has not convinced Carlo Ancelotti he is worthy of a place in his Everton squad and could be sold this summer should an offer the club deem good enough come in for him.**

Indeed, the former England forward has scored just once this season while laying on a further two assists and his 1.3 shots per game average ([WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/13796/History/Theo-Walcott)) is the second-lowest number recorded over a Premier League season in his career, with only his first full campaign on Merseyside yielding fewer (1.2).

For context, fellow wingers Bernand and Alex Iwobi both [average more dribbles](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/31/Show/England-Everton) than Walcott, as well as more [key passes](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/31/Show/England-Everton). Furthermore, the 31-year-old has seen his performances against the likes of [Norwich](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league/everton/everton-fans-fume-at-theo-walcotts-wasteful-performance-vs-norwich/) and [Brighton](https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2019/10/27/everton-fans-react-to-theo-walcotts-latest-performance/) torn into by fans online this season, making it fairly easy to see why Ancelotti may want rid of him.

However, after Toffees-related Twitter account, [The Gwladys Street](https://twitter.com/TheGwladysSt/status/1244218781783728130), relayed the story to their followers, many supporters picked up on the fact the club would have to receive a firm offer good enough. With that in mind, those reacting don’t fancy their chances of getting one, considering his form.
