Evertons Ancelotti plays down talk of Walcott exit
Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti is confident Theo Walcott will not leave the club in the transfer window after omitting the English winger from the squad for the 2-1 win at Crystal Palace on Saturday.
Walcott, who arrived from Arsenal in 2018, has made one appearance for Everton this season, in the 3-0 League Cup win over Salford City.
The 31-year-old has not featured in the Merseyside club’s last three matches and British media have linked him with a move to Leeds United.
Asked whether Walcott could leave the club in the transfer window, Ancelotti said: “I don’t think so. The problem is the competition is really high in this moment. Sometimes it can happen that a player, like Theo, is not involved.
Everton, who are second in the Premier League standings with three wins from three, face West Ham United in the League Cup on Wednesday.
