West Ham United’s Michail Antonio has been linked with a move to Everton recently, while Tom Davies is said to be of interest to David Moyes’ side, but it would make no sense for either side to agree to the transfers.

According to the Daily Mirror, Everton want Antonio, and the same paper claims that Davies is on West Ham’s radar.

But the switches would make no sense for West Ham or Everton to go through with.

Moyes has already stated that he is frustrated with a lack players down the right-hand side at West Ham, and selling his best option in Antonio would be madness.

Antonio may not have been in top form this term, but he remains an outstanding attacking talent.

Davies, meanwhile, is one of Everton’s best up-and-coming prospects and offloading him at this early stage of his career could be a terrible decision.

Davies may not have established himself as a permanent starter for Everton yet, but he has a number of enviable qualities for someone so young.

And Everton and West Ham should not even be tempted to trade players this month, as they would only weaken their squads by doing so.
