Everton are one of four clubs who are believed to be interested in signing a “special” attacker in the near future, with other Premier League sides keen.
The Blues were badly in need of some attacking firepower during the summer transfer window, having struggled for goals throughout last season, playing a part in them facing a relegation battle.
Sean Dyche managed to address that issue by making some important summer signings, including Beto from Udinese in a big-money move, not to mention Arnaut Danjuma and Jack Harrison joining on loan from Villarreal and Leeds United respectively.
That being said, it hasn’t yet made the required difference in the Premier League, with Saturday’s 2-1 defeat at home to Luton Town a terrible result, on a day when many would have been expecting a home win. While the 3-1 victory at Brentford last weekend suggested that Everton had steadied the ship, this result arguably puts them back to square one.
In truth, the Blues still look as though they could possibly do with more attacking quality moving forward, ensuring that they avoid a third relegation tussle in succession. The chance will arise to make more signings when the January transfer window opens, and it looks as though they may have lined up a potential target.
