David Moyes, the Everton manager, has said it would take a "very big cheque" to prise England U21 midfielder Jack Rodwell away from Goodison Park this summer. Rodwell, 19, has established himself as a regular in the Toffees' matchday squad this season after coming through the ranks at the club. It has brought inevitable speculation linking him with a move elsewhere - with Chelsea and both the Manchester clubs among those supposedly interested. Moyes, however, has stressed that he wants to keep Rodwell at the club. "Are we susceptible? Of course we are, because people look at us and think 'we can go to Everton and take their best players', but if they do, they know they are going to have to come with a very big cheque." he told the Daily Express. "If they come here, they know it is going to be very expensive and our intention is not to let any of the players go. I expect them to be here next season. "As far as we are concerned, Jack will be here next season. He has a four-year deal and it is being renewed just now. I feel he understands that he is being pushed in the right direction at Everton and he appreciates that he is at the right place."
