Everton boss Dyche admits blocking Gray's Fulham move

Everton boss Sean Dyche admits they're in dispute with winger Demarai Gray.

Gray saw a move to Fulham last week collapse and remains keen to leave.

"Demarai told us a move was done, which was interesting to hear," Dyche said.

"We reminded him of the truth of the fact that no moves are done without this club's say so. That's the truth of it."

Dyche also said that Gray "didn't want to train" and "didn't want to be here".

"We said it's not a done deal because this club is the most important," the 52-year-old added.

"This club will make decisions on the future of you as players and not the other way around. It's an unfortunate one because I try to keep our business in-house. I think on this occasion, it's right to reply."
