in doubt after taking a swipe boss Sean Dyche for &#8216;not respecting him as a person&#8217;<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Steven Gerrard&#8217;s Al-Ettifaq have opened talks with Everton&#8217;s Demarai Gray<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>The Jamaican winger seemingly criticised Sean Dyche in an Instagram post<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Gray is yet to feature for Everton this season amid transfer speculation<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Demarai Gray is in talks to join Steven Gerrard and Jordan Henderson\u2019s Saudi Arabian club Al Ettifaq, with the Everton winger yesterday appearing to take a swipe at manager Sean Dyche.<\/p>\n<p>The winger has been linked with a move away from Merseyside througout the summer, and a transfer to Saudi Pro League side Al Shabab was agreed in August.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Gray currently remains an Everton player but is yet to appear in a matchday squad this season and was close to joining Fulham before a move failed to materialise.<\/p>\n<p>He posted on Instagram: &#8216;Everton fans have always been great with me but it&#8217;s so difficult to play for someone who don&#8217;t show you respect as a person.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Gray arrived at Goodison Park from Bayer Leverkusen in 2021 and has made 75 appearances since.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

season and has been linked with moves away from Goodison Park<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>He featured regularly under Dyche last season as Everton narrowly avoided relegation from the Premier League.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>There have been doubts throughout the summer about Gray&#8217;s long-term future under the current Everton boss.<\/p>\n<p>Dyche did not suggest that Gray would be leaving any time soon following his side&#8217;s 2-2 draw at Sheffield United on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Asked why Gray is yet to feature this season, he said: &#8216;It was a bit of everything &#8211; his fitness, his fitness to play in the side, the situation around him and all of the noise.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

season courtesy of a 2-2 draw at Sheffield United on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Hopefully, over the next couple of weeks that will become clear and he will get himself fit as a start.&#8217;\u00a0<span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It is understood Gray is angered at Everton\u2019s reluctance to sell him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Toffees are very light on numbers after losing Alex Iwobi, Tom Cannon and Neal Maupay without replacing them on Deadline Day.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>They named just seven of a possible nine substitutes on Saturday, two of which were goalkeepers.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a
