Everton is reportedly preparing a proposal to sign Ethan Wheatley, the 20-year-old striker currently under contract at Manchester United.
What we know about the deal
Wheatley, born on January 20, 2006, stands at 6 ft 2 in and plays as a centre-forward. He signed his first professional contract with Manchester United in January 2024 and extended that deal in March 2025, tying him to the club until June 2028 with an option for an additional year.
Wheatley has logged just 3 Premier League appearances for Manchester United, registering zero goals and zero assists.
His loan spells tell a slightly more encouraging story. Wheatley has spent time at Walsall, Bradford City, and most recently Northampton Town, where he contributed 3 goals in 22 appearances during the 2025/26 season.
