Everton are in the market to add some late additions to their squad this week.

An increased demand for signings has emerged after Everton were hit with further injury issues over the weekend.

David Moyes wants Everton to sign a new striker as a result of Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s suspected hamstring injury on Saturday.

The Toffees have been able to score four times across their last two games, but goals have been an issue on the whole this season.

Everton have also lost Dwight McNeil through injury who was not only scoring but creating goals for others.

With a new playmaker also potentially on the radar for Moyes, one reported target has just changed his agent ahead of the last week of the window.

Marcus Edwards changes agent after Everton interest

Ahead of the final week in the window, Everton have shown an interest in Marcus Edwards as a potential creative option.

The former Spurs winger has recently been left out of Sporting’s Champions League squad amid the transfer speculation.

And last week, Edwards changed his agency to Wasserman Football with his future at Sporting seemingly hanging by a thread.

The agency posted the news on their Instagram account with the message: ‘We are delighted to announce Marcus Edwards signing.

‘The English winger signed with Portuguese club Sporting CP in January 2022. During the 2023/24 season, he was part of the squad that secured the Portuguese Liga title.’

The 26-year-old has just over one year remaining on his deal in Lisbon as he has swiftly fallen out of favour.

Everton signing Edwards could bank Tottenham millions with the Lilywhites holding a significant sell-on clause in his contract.

Marcus Edwards completely dropped by Sporting CP

After not being included in the traveling side to play in the Champions League last week, Edwards has found himself completely exiled.

The playmaker was once again not included in the matchday squad over the weekend as Sporting played Nacional in the Portuguese top flight.

Owen Hargreaves has hailed Edwards as ‘fantastic’ in the past, but it is clear his stock within the club has plumetted.

Everton are without Dwight McNeil through injury which could well push forward a move for a creative player this week.

And it seems Edwards is there for a club to pick up before the window shuts.
