The Toffees have also looked overseas and were linked with a very talented young forward who is at the World Cup.

Marcus Rashford predicts Everton target Roony Bardghji to do ‘something special’
Everton are showing an interest in Roony Bardghji and are monitoring his situation at La Liga giants Barcelona.
It’s being reported that Barca will listen to offers for Bardghji, so the Toffees are positioning themselves as a potential destination.
Evidently, the 20-year-old forward is very highly rated at the Nou Camp, as his teammate Marcus Rashford has predicted him to have a great World Cup with Sweden.
Interview asked: “One young player that you think we should keep an eye on at this World Cup?”
Rashford replied: “I know it’s difficult for young players to get a lot of minutes, but I’d say Roony from Sweden.
“I think if he gets minutes, he could do something special.”
How would you feel about Hayden Hackney becoming Everton’s first signing? 🤩
Bardghji joined Barca last summer and made 28 appearances in his debut season, registering six goal involvements.
The 2005-born prodigy predominantly operates as a right-winger, cutting in onto his favoured left foot.
Indeed, Everton already have that profile with Tyler Dibling, so this link suggests the club may look to send him on loan.
