Everton are interested in recruiting an ex-Premier League forward.
At Goodison Park, this might be an exciting piece of business.
Everton may be interested in bringing in a former Premier League player ahead of the January transfer window, according to a new transfer update.
Will Everton bring in new players in January?
The Blues understood the significance of the summer transfer window as they sought to rebound from another poor season in 2022/23. They nearly avoided relegation to the Championship, and while their final-day victory over Bournemouth was widely hailed, the overwhelming mood was one of relief.
Overall, Everton did some good business over the summer, boosting their squad and addressing the attacking side of the game after being stingy in front of goal for far too long. Beto, who arrived in a big-money move from Udinese, is arguably the most exciting signing, but Youssef Chermiti is a young prospect who could be a wise acquisition. Meanwhile, on loan from Leeds United and Villarreal, respectively, Jack Harrison and Arnaut Danjuma will look to make an impression.
Having said that, the Toffees have the possibility of making additional acquisitions once the January transfer window opens, giving Sean Dyche even more alternatives between now and the conclusion of the season. The existing information shows that they will require as much assistance as possible, and a recent report claims that an ex-Premier League player is being considered.
Everton is interested in which former Premier League player?
Everton are interested in former Manchester United winger Adnan Januzaj, who is currently playing for Sevilla, according to a report from Spain [via Caught Offside]. The 28-year-old joined Real Sociedad from La Liga last year, but he might leave quickly.
With playing time at his present club limited, Dyche’s side could offer him a route out in the near future as he attempts to kickstart his career after being such a highly-rated young player during his United days. Granted, Januzaj’s troubles in recent years mean that Everton fans may not be overjoyed with this update, but he is definitely a footballer oozing natural potential, having been dubbed as United’s “future” by none other than Sir Alex Ferguson himself.
Still only 28 years old, the Belgian should be nearing the prime of his career, and while it appears evident that he will never surpass his past potential, he could be worth a gamble for Everton. This is still a 15-cap Belgium international with a combined 209 Premier League and La Liga appearances, generating 42 goal contributions (20 goals and 22 assists) in those tournaments – proving genuine pedigree at the top level.
A loan move to Everton in January may make the most sense, as it reduces the risk if he fails to impress at Goodison Park, and Sevilla may gladly sanction such a transaction if they don’t see him as a key player in the future. If he performs well for the Blues, a possible permanent move could be addressed at the end of the season.
