Everton are in need of some further firepower adding to their front line over the coming weeks after what their recent displays have showcased.
David Moyes saw his side lose their opening game of 2026 on Sunday as the defeat to Brentford pulled the Blues back into the bottom half.
The Premier League table remains tight in the gap between the top three and bottom three sides, which Everton are in.
A big opportunity is there for the Toffees to push on this season as Moyes admits the Friedkins are backing transfer activity.
An emphasis has been placed on finding the right player for Everton in the January window.
Tyler Dibling has struggled since joining Everton as it is now believed another winger is ready to push for a move with Everton interested.
Everton showing an interest in Zuriko Davitashvili
Everton News columnist Alan Myers believes Everton’s priority should be a new striker in the January window.
Goals have come at a premium all season for Everton, with their current available forwards all struggling to find the back of the net.
According to Foot Mercato, Everton are now showing an interest in the Georgian winger, Zuriko Davitashvili.
What are your thoughts on Everton shopping in the French second division? 😬
There are, however, a number of clubs keen on the 24-year-old:
- Fenerbahce
- Besiktas
- Benfica
Although the report claims that Saint-Etienne are reluctant to sell their prized winger this month, Davitashvili would be willing to push for a move.
Everton still have to decide over Jack Grealish’s future, with the £50m forward still only finding the back of the net twice this season.
Given he is set to turn 31 around the start of next season, perhaps the Blues are looking for a long-term answer at left-wing, which may have an effect on Dibling.
Davitashvili interest speaks volumes about Everton’s Tyler Dibling conundrum
Davitashvili would arrive in January and offer competition to Grealish for the spot on the left wing.
There may well have been a hope from Dibling that Iliman Ndiaye could return to the left side of the attack at some stage this year, which would open up the right wing for him.

He's still got a lot to show if he's going to be a success on Merseyside 😫
A lot of Everton fans have not been impressed with Dibling in recent weeks after he has been offered more regular minutes.
Adding another winger may well add to his issues on Merseyside as the competition for places could become even more intense.
Dibling has been working hard at Finch Farm, but his efforts have not translated to performances on the pitch under Moyes.
Just months on from his big-money move to Merseyside and Dibling finds himself needing to overcome some significant obstacles to make his time at Everton a success.
