Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall hit the headlines in July 2024 when Chelsea signed him from Leicester City on a five-year deal. While his contract also had an option for one additional year, Kiernan was unable to secure his place in the Chelsea first team. He made 36 appearances for the London Blues in the 2024-25 season, but on only two occasions, he played as a starter.
Chelsea decided to part ways with Kiernan ahead of the 2025-26 season, with several Premier League clubs showing interest in the 26-year-old centre midfielder. When the summer transfer window opened, West Ham United and Fulham reportedly pursued Kiernan’s signature, but no deal materialised. Finally, Everton appeared on the race and made a special offer for the former Leicester City man, which Chelsea might consider, as confirmed by transfer market specialist Fabrizio Romano.
