The left winger was unable to ensure Burnley’s survival in the Premier League as they lost at home to Newcastle United on the final matchday of last season to suffer the drop. McNeil is a wanted man this summer, with Crystal Palace and West Ham United among those who have shown interest in acquiring the 22-year-old.

Burnley's Vincent Kompany has hinted he is waiting for Maxwell Cornet and Dwight McNeil to be sold with both players set to miss out against Huddersfield.

And I want everyone to be clear this is what I signed up for, so it is not a surprise. “That is the job I signed up for. “Dwight is another one, there has been a lot of conversations happening behind the scenes and those happen at a club level,” Kompany added.

Things have moved swiftly, with McNeil undergoing a medical at the club's Finch Farm training complex on Wednesday evening. It is expected that an official announcement will come soon. Everton have agreed a deal to sign Dwight McNeil from Burnley, with the winger undergoing a medical on Wednesday, 90min understands.

Everton are close to completing their third signing of the summer, with Burnleys Dwight McNeil set to sign a long-term deal at Goodison Park.

He will follow in the footsteps of Burnley teammate James Tarkowski and on-loan Sporting Lisbon defender, Ruben Vinagre. Since their relegation to the Championship, a number of key players have departed Burnley, including Tarkowski and Ben Mee. McNeil is understood to have agreed personal terms on a five-year contract which would keep him at Goodison Park until the summer of 2027.

Dwight McNeil is nearing a move to Everton from Burnley to become the club's third signing of the summer transfer window.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin particularly will no doubt enjoy the increased crossing ability he might bring, and a more consistent delivery from set pieces might well be on the way too. Dwight McNeil is on the verge of a move to Merseyside after a deal was agreed with Burnley and a medical has taken place. There could be a host of factors behind that drop but, for now, we have to take the numbers at face value. From the start of the window, many have had a general consensus that the Blues couldn't find just one star to achieve that. He achieved more combined tackles and interceptions per 90 minutes than any winger Everton used throughout last term, and it was the same story in loose ball recoveries too. Ruben Vinagre was confirmed as the second addition of the summer on Wednesday afternoon, just as big updates were being revealed over the proposed third arrival.

Vincent Kompany has claimed that duo Maxwel Cornet and Dwight McNeil will be kept out of the Burnley team for the opening day clash with Huddersfield Town.

“But that is a physical level. Is he ready to play on Friday? No. “At the moment he is at the club.

However, the winger is only 22, has made more than 130 Premier League appearances and can play across the entire midfield. He broke through in 2018-19, firing ...

With Dominic Calvin-Lewin awaiting his crosses and set pieces, he has the ideal man to boost those assist numbers. His productivity has declined however, he only managed one assist and no goals in Burnley’s relegation campaign and drew the ire of Clarets fans for his lack of end product. In fact, his durability is an attraction for Everton. McNeil has only missed two league games in the last three seasons – a contrast to the likes of Andros Townsend, Jean-Philippe Gbamin and Dele Alli, who have each battled injury issues.

Dwight McNeil has signed for Everton from Burnley for an undisclosed fee, the forward penning a five-year contract until the end of June 2027.

Everton have officially unveiled their second signing in two days and third of the summer after an agreement with Burnley sees English winger Dwight McNeil ...

His 1.77 touches in the attacking penalty area/90 are in the bottom 1% among attacking mids and wingers in Europe’s Top 5 leagues, but I expect that to improve significantly should Lampard choose to use him as an actual winger. Combine this with the fact that Dominic Calvert-Lewin, when fit, is one of the most aerially imposing strikers in the world, and it seems clear that increasing the supply chain to the Blues’ big #9 is the main goal of this signing, along with adding more youth to a team that lacks it. Considering he played as a wide-midfielder in a Sean Dyche 4-4-2, you could probably expect that, but there’s no doubt that his work rate and defensive abilities are assets. The 2.81 Shot-Creating Actions/90 that he registered last season was the highest of his young career and would put him 4th in last year’s Everton squad. The Clarets as a club scored 7 fewer goals than xG would predict over the course of the season, the second-worst in the league only above Norwich City. This was a huge reason why he only registered one assist last season, although his xA of 4.8 was still not fantastic, but I expect that to improve with a step up in the quality of players around him. The former Manchester United academy player is a proficient dribbler; one of the best in the Premier League despite playing for years in a system that generally frowns upon flair.
