“£16M Everton Star’s Career CRUSHED Overnight! Shocking Transfer Twist Spells DOOM for His Future!”

The Friedkin Group is set to provide David Moyes with a significant transfer budget as they aim to restore Everton to their former heights.

After a quiet January window, they are preparing for major activity when the market reopens in June.

Moyes has already identified potential targets, with Liam Delap high on his list following the striker’s impressive Premier League season with Ipswich Town.

Everton are also monitoring Maxime Esteve, although completing a deal for the Burnley defender may prove difficult after their promotion back to the top flight.

Meanwhile, it’s becoming increasingly evident that one current Everton player is heading for the exit following recent developments.

Nathan Patterson appears likely to depart, especially after Moyes hinted at a lack of trust in the right-back.

Moyes expressed concern about moving Jake O’Brien from right-back to centre-back, suggesting it could weaken the team, indicating his preference to keep O’Brien in his current role rather than rely on Patterson.

Patterson started in the defeat against Chelsea but was withdrawn shortly after the hour mark, having struggled throughout the match.

Adding to speculation about his future, reports over the weekend confirmed that Everton are leading the race to sign Brighton full-back Tariq Lamptey.

This move would all but confirm Patterson’s time at Goodison Park is nearing an end.

Patterson’s future remains uncertain. Everton paid Rangers £16 million for him in January 2022 when he was just 20, after he showed great potential in Scotland.

However, he has struggled to make a consistent impact at Everton.

Injuries have severely hampered his progress, with Patterson recently admitting that it has been a tough year, spending much of it sidelined.

A return to Rangers could be a possible solution.

Kevin Thelwell is set to take charge at Ibrox, and a reunion could benefit both player and club. However, finances could be an obstacle.

Rangers are unlikely to match Everton’s valuation, so both clubs would need to negotiate a compromise to make a deal happen.

Moyes’ first summer in charge looks set to be a busy one, with major changes expected to reshape the Everton squad ahead of the new season.
