Everton are up against the clock if they are going to get any further business over the line before the 7pm GMT deadline.
Clubs have had over a month to wrap up any deals, but Everton find themselves heading into the final hours still looking for additions.
David Moyes is expecting at least one arrival, though, with Tyrique George set to join Everton on an initial loan deal.
More could have been added to the squad as Everton have wanted to sign another striker over recent weeks.
Now this should be interesting! 😏
Pick one for Everton, who you taking? 🫣

What Ivan Toney has just admitted as Everton show interest
Al-Ahli have been clear Toney would not leave over the winter window, despite some of the stories surrounding his future.
It was going to be a difficult task for any side to land Toney due to his financial obligations over in Saudi Arabia.
Name your Everton signing out of these strikers… 💥
Have we missed anyone out? 🤔
Speaking to The Mirror, Toney has now admitted that he is keen to remain in Saudi as he eyes a spot in England’s World Cup squad.
“I feel like I’m doing well right now and that continuing to score goals [here in Saudi] will give me a stronger chance to get to what could be my only World Cup,” he said.
Beto has received interest from European clubs ahead of the deadline on Monday evening.
Without a direct replacement, there is absolutely no way Moyes could sanction an exit for the 28-year-old striker.
He may have scored the equaliser at the weekend, but Everton fans would certainly have welcomed a player like Toney to come in and replace Beto.
Everton must add a new striker in the summer
With hours left on the clock, Everton are going to struggle to find any side across Europe who would be willing to sell their striker at this stage of the window.
PSV Eindhoven have pulled the plug on Ricardo Pepi’s move to Fulham already on deadline day as they can’t find a replacement.
The focus will now have to shift to the summer window.
Everton hold an interest in Troy Parrott among a host of other names.
There will now be the issue of Parrott’s value potentially raising if he is to play at the World Cup and shine on the international stage.
