Everton racing to sign “strong” title-winner who impressed against Pickford

With a new player surfacing as a rumored target for the Toffees in need of deals in the upcoming months, Everton appears to have a busy summer ahead of them on multiple fronts.

This summer, Goodison Park employees will not only have to deal with incomings and outgoings, but also a possible takeover that might help them cross the finish line. John Textor appears most likely to step in and save Everton after the collapse of 777 Partners’ agreement, with an offer supposedly in the works. Even if his arrival would help Goodison’s financial issues, it might not be enough to stop departures like Amadou Onana’s.

This summer, a £50 million deal involving the Belgian has already been linked to teams like Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur. Even though his departure would leave a huge void in Sean Dyche’s team, Everton would surely benefit much from his departure, particularly if they were able to find a suitable successor. In a perfect scenario, Armin Gigovic might help the Toffees discover a less expensive option to match Onana’s caliber before he departs for a sizable sum.

Gigovic, who is in the last year of his contract at Rostov, may complete a loan transfer this summer and then leave for free in a permanent move the following year. In the meanwhile, Everton and other teams may have to pay £12.7 million if the Russian team does demand a fee for their midfield player.
