Castellanos now reported more likely to stay despite Everton interest

Everton are still only described as interested in Taty Castellanos, while the latest account points towards him staying at West Ham.

Claret&Hugh, citing The i Paper, says Castellanos is now more likely to remain at West Ham this summer despite Everton's interest. The article does not report an approach, talks or a bid from Everton, so there is still no move to describe.

Claret&Hugh columnist Kris Gonzo argues that West Ham should keep the striker as they target promotion. That is a case for retaining him, not confirmation that the club has made its decision.
