Everton manager David Moyes has personally picked out his priority focus for the summer transfer window, according to reliable journalist Patrick Boyland.
Moyes set to be backed by Everton’s owners
The new Premier League season may not be too far away, but there is still plenty of time for the Blues to conduct some important transfer business.
In fact, a positive claim from journalist Miguel Delaney has even suggested that Everton’s owners, The Friedkin Group, could make as much as £150m available for new signings, as Everton look to move away from being a relegation threatened team year upon year.
The likes of James McAtee, Douglas Luiz, Maghnes Akliouche, Merlin Rohl, Takefusa Kubo and Georgios Vagiannidis are all mentioned as options by Delaney, ahead of what could be exciting next month or so.
Elsewhere, Everton are said to be in contact with Atletico Mineiro defender Lyanco over a summer move to Merseyside, while they have also enquired about the availability of Rangers striker Hamza Igamane, as Moyes looks to add more attacking quality to his squad after the exit of Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
Moyes wants key position strengthened at Everton
Now, according to The Athletic‘s Boyland, Everton boss Moyes is targeting a new right winger as a priority during the summer transfer window.
It is claimed that it “will be top of their list” ahead of the new season, especially after the double exit of loanee pair Jack Harrison and Jesper Lindstrom, who have returned to their parent clubs.
A new right-sided option makes perfect sense for Everton, with the position standing out as one that lacks quality and depth currently.
