Kelly Gago: Everton Women striker hands in transfer request and wants to return to France

Kelly Gago has handed in a written transfer request at Everton Women.

The France forward has put in her request for personal reasons and wants to return to France.

Your Site News understands Paris Saint Germain are one of the clubs across Europe interested in Gago during this winter transfer window.

Gago's request was made before the squad returned from the winter break. Everton have known about Gago's desire to leave for a while.

Sources have told Your Site News that the WSL club left her on the bench against Manchester City on Sunday to protect her from a potential move this month.

However, Everton sources insist this not correct and it was a sporting decision about team selection only.

Gago signed a three-year contract with Everton Women last summer and was one of the first major signings made by the Freidkin Group when they took over the women's team.

Gago has been an important player for Everton, scoring nine goals in 18 games in all competitions since joining from Nantes at the start of 2025.
