AliousAccording to recent reports, Everton is discreetly maneuvering in the transfer market, aiming to further strengthen their squad. This insight comes from Sky Sports journalist Alan Myers, who shared an update via Twitter on July 3rd, following the club’s announcement of Iliman Ndiaye’s transfer from Marseille.
Ndiaye is the latest addition to Everton’s roster, joining Tim Iroegbunam from Aston Villa and Jack Harrison, who has extended his loan spell from Leeds United. The club has also secured Omari Benjamin for their under-21 team on a permanent basis.
Myers hinted at ongoing transfer activities, stating, “There’s a lot happening behind the scenes, although I’m not certain if any deals are on the verge of completion.”
The management duo of Sean Dyche and Kevin Thelwell are evidently keen on bringing more talent to Goodison Park. The official confirmation of Ndiaye’s signing, which had been anticipated for some time, has provided a sense of relief and progress in Everton’s transfer strategy.
This transfer window appears to be more conventional for Everton compared to recent seasons. However, the club’s financial capabilities are likely constrained due to two profit and sustainability breaches in the previous season.
Despite these challenges, Everton seems poised to pursue transfers, thanks to the advancing Dan Friedkin takeover, deals finalized before the June 30th PSR deadline, and potential future player sales.
The club’s transfer focus appears to be on midfield reinforcements, with reported interest in Celtic’s Matt O’Riley [HITC, July 2] and Benfica’s Florentino Luis [Record, June 30].
While keeping Jarrad Branthwaite remains a top priority, Everton supporters would welcome additional squad depth, more attacking options, and potential upgrades in the full-back positions. This would mark a significant improvement for fans who have witnessed limited transfer activity in recent years due to financial restrictions.
