Despite recent struggles with the Premier League’s profit and sustainability rules, Everton look set to open the chequebook this summer and bring a number of reinforcements to the club.
Fresh faces expected to arrive at Goodison
One name linked with a move to Merseyside is former Liverpool loanee Arthur Melo. The midfielder boasts 22 caps for Brazil and whilst his spell at Anfield was marred by injury, he would no doubt be a massive asset in the Toffees’ midfield.
A midfielder clearly ranks high on Everton’s shopping list with recent reports also linking the club with a move for Matteo Guendouzi and Khephren Thuram. Whichever midfielder ends up joining the club will likely be arriving to replace Amadou Onana, with the Belgian attracting interest from a host of top clubs.
North London rivals Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur look set to battle it out for the 22-year-old with the Toffees reportedly asking for a fee in the region of £50 million to secure his services. Onana made 30 league appearances for Everton last season, proving a vital part of Sean Dyche’s side as they fought off relegation in spite of multiple points deductions.
With Onana’s exit now likely, it appears that Everton have agreed a deal to sign a midfielder from a side that secured Champions League football last season.
