Abdoulaye Doucoure will leave Everton at season's end, as no contract extension talks are underway. Everton won't trigger a one-year extension due to his wage demands and age. Clubs from the Middle East, including Al-Ettifaq, are interested in signing him on a free transfer. Despite being Everton's highest earner and a key player under David Moyes, the club aims to reduce the squad's age and wage bill. Doucoure has interest from Saudi Arabia, UAE, Turkey, and Germany. Everton may replace him with Charly Alcaraz, depending on Alcaraz starting eight games.
