The January transfer market is now just a matter of weeks away with Everton having a big opportunity to bolster their squad.

Everton have shown some more positive indications on the pitch over recent games with four points taken from their last two outings.

Picking up an unexpected draw against Arsenal on the weekend cannot distract Sean Dyche’s side from the fact they are now just three points above the drop zone.

Results did not exactly go Everton’s way over the weekend and have only highlighted their need to add players over the winter market.

Several players are being linked with a move away from Merseyside with Beto being eyed by Juventus with a potential return to Italy on the cards.

But fans will be wanting to see The Friedkin Group land at Goodison Park and immediately open their wallet.

How PSR will affect Everton’s January transfer plans

The Friedkin Group are planning to invest at Everton once they are handed the keys to Goodison with work clearly needing to be done to develop the club.

According to Mark Douglas, Everton’s prospective new owners are set to hand Dyche a ‘modest’ transfer budget for next month.

However, the club’s PSR struggles are going to prove an issue once again with their spending power limited.

But there are positives to take, with the Friedkin’s arrival on Merseyside expected to ‘instantly transform’ Everton’s financial outlook.

The Friedkins were frustrated over the weekend as they saw their other club, AS Roma, lose again in Serie A.

Everton fans will need to be aware this takeover may not provide immediate results, but the prospect of financial stability will offer a brighter future.

The Friedkin Group could bring big change to Everton

New ownership is going to provide a very interesting scenario on Merseyside with some big decisions needing to be made.

The Friedkins are expected to sack Dyche in the New Year with changes being made to the club’s directors.

It is apparent the Roma owners will be arriving on day one with a clear plan on how they intend to implement change around the club.

But financial help will be received if Everton are able to retain their Premier League status with the new stadium opening over the summer.

And this was a big reason why the club appealed so much to the expected new owners with The Friedkin Group wowed by Everton’s new stadium and its financial possibilities.
