As the Women's Super League transfer deadline approaches, Everton are actively pursuing a deal to bring Slovenia midfielder Zara Kramzar to Merseyside on loan from Roma. The 20-year-old talent is currently in the region, hoping to finalise a move that would see her join the Toffees for the remainder of the season.
A Relatively Quiet Deadline Day Expected
This winter's transfer window is anticipated to be far less frantic than previous deadlines, with most WSL clubs having completed their business early. The deadline is set for 11pm on Tuesday, contrasting sharply with September's window, which saw a flurry of last-minute activity, including Chelsea's high-profile signing of Alyssa Thompson.
Should the Kramzar deal be completed, she would become Everton's third loan signing of this window, following the arrivals of experienced Manchester United full-back Hannah Blundell and young Arsenal midfielder Laila Harbert.
Chelsea and Leicester's Transfer Movements
Chelsea have reportedly had an offer rejected by Paris Saint-Germain for Nigeria midfielder Jennifer Echegini. Sources indicate that progress on this potential transfer is unlikely before the window closes. Meanwhile, Leicester City have made enquiries about taking Chelsea's England youth international midfielder Lexi Potter on loan.
However, as of Tuesday lunchtime, Chelsea were unwilling to sanction Potter's departure unless they secure a midfield replacement. The 19-year-old, whose last start came in Chelsea's 9-1 victory over Liverpool in December, is understood to be keen on regular playing time but remains regarded as an important squad member at Stamford Bridge.
Other WSL Transfer Developments
Arsenal are monitoring the goalkeeper market following injury concerns, though any move would depend on identifying the right opportunity. In the WSL2, Newcastle are working to sign American forward Simone Charley, formerly of Portland Thorns and Angel City, who left Orlando Pride at the end of 2025.
Sheffield United have reportedly turned down offers for their forward Amy Andrews, while Ipswich have secured 18-year-old full-back Nelly Las on loan from Leicester for the rest of the campaign. Nottingham Forest have also completed a loan deal, bringing in 18-year-old Brighton striker Olivia Johnson.
The overall picture suggests a measured approach across the women's game as clubs focus on strategic reinforcements rather than last-minute panic buys.
