Dominic Calvert-Lewin hits back at Everton transfer rumours amid Arsenal, Tottenham links

Dominic Calvert-Lewin has dismissed speculation about his future at Everton, insisting he is paying no attention to it while away with England at Euro 2020.

The striker enjoyed a sensational season for the Blues, scoring 21 goals from 39 appearances to cement his place in Gareth Southgate’s place in the Three Lions squad in the process.

Such form saw the 24-year-old linked with Manchester United earlier in the season, while reports this week suggested Arsenal were lining up a £50m bid for his services.

He's has also been linked with Tottenham Hotspur, who could yet end up needing to replace England captain Harry Kane this summer.

But with England preparing for a round-of-16 knockout clash with Germany, Calvert-Lewin has insisted he will continue to ignore transfer speculation and is fully-focused on the European Championships.

“It’s quite easy (to ignore), just don’t go on my phone!” he told reporters. “That’s what I tend to do really.

“I’m focused, I’m focused now and I’m focused on training, working hard and making an impact on this tournament.

“What my future holds and what people speculate about is not my concern at this moment in time.”
