£15m to Chelsea.
That is an absolute bargain compared to other transfers. Great talent and a super prospect for the future as long as he can get game time. I feel he will spend the majority of his time on the bench though and will end up being another English player who fails to reach their potential.
It's a massive fuck off to your boyhood team though. £35m was the rrp last season when he was injured. Everton then covered his rehabilitation from injury, continue paying his wages in the hope that he will stay and he has decided to leave for £20m less.
Something tells me he won't be welcomed back at Goodison Park or Bramley Moore anytime soon.

Re: Barkley
Seems like a good way to spend his time and the locals’ money.

Re: Barkley
Olly must be playing awfully well as he nears his 40s
