Everton’s summer transfer window one has gotten off to a strong start ahead of the new season kicking off this weekend.

Kevin Thelwell has been put to work over the last month and a half with four new signings coming through the doors at Goodison Park.

Sean Dyche will be delighted with the work which has been put in by his Everton players over the summer with the new faces also making an impact.

The likes of Jake O’Brien have taken no time whatsoever in getting up and running with two goals already to the defender’s name.

But it does not look like the Toffees are done just yet in the market with still over two weeks to go until the market shuts for the year.

Everton make approach for Manchester United midfielder

Adding to the midfield is something which Everton are looking to do over the coming weeks in the transfer window.

Kalvin Phillips is a player who Everton are said to be eyeing over the final stages of the market with the Manchester City midfielder potentially available for a loan.

However, there is seemingly another midfielder from the other half of Manchester which is on the radar at Goodison this summer.

And this is a midfielder who could offer Everton with more than just defensive cover as he has an eye for goal .

According to The Athletic, Everton are one of the clubs who have made a move for Scott McTominay this summer.

The Scotland international’s future at Old Trafford is up in the air this summer with just one year remaining on his deal with the Red Devils.

Along with Fulham and Napoli, the Toffees are joined by the likes of Brentford, Galatasaray and Fenerbahce who have also enquired about the midfielder.

With no new contract on the table for the 27-year-old, United are believed to be willing to accept a bid in the region of £25m for McTominay.

Everton could land ‘special’ midfielder with Scott McTominay

Clearly, McTominay is a player in high demand this summer, so any move for Everton is going to require the Toffees putting forward a good proposal.

The Scotland international has been hailed as ‘special‘ in the past having shown his ability to find the back of the net for club and country.

McTominay returned seven goals in the Premier League alone last season which could provide Everton with a much welcomed boost in front of goal.

Everton’s biggest issue last season was finding the back of the net and having that type of input coming from a midfielder would be a massive boost for Dyche’s side.
