SHOCKING EVERTON BOMBSHELL FORCES DAVID MOYES INTO DESPERATE MOVE – HE’S COMING FOR YOUR 40-CAP INTERNATIONAL SUPERSTAR AND NOTHING WILL STOP HIM!
Roma forward Artem Dovbyk could be the key to driving Everton’s push for a Premier League European place.
The Ukraine international, who has earned 40 caps for his country, has emerged as a potential transfer target for Everton as they prepare for the January window.
Speculation has grown around the possibility of a swap deal involving Artem Dovbyk and Beto, with reports suggesting the Guinea-Bissau forward could head to Serie A in exchange for the Roma striker.
While discussions are still at an early stage, the idea underlines Everton’s growing desperation to add quality and reliability to their forward line.
Thierno Barry finally opened his Premier League account in the recent defeat to Nottingham Forest at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, but one goal has done little to ease concerns about Everton’s attacking output.
A lack of cutting edge in the final third continues to plague David Moyes’ side, leaving them vulnerable in tight matches.
Only Nottingham Forest and Wolves have scored fewer goals than Everton in the Premier League this season, a worrying statistic for a club with ambitions beyond survival.
Even relegation-threatened sides such as West Ham United and Leeds United have managed to outscore the Toffees, highlighting just how blunt Moyes’ team have been in front of goal.
If The Friedkin Group harbour any realistic hopes of pushing Everton towards the European places this season, investment in a proven striker appears essential.
Given the American owners’ involvement with Roma, a move for Dovbyk could represent a logical and potentially achievable solution.
However, Moyes may yet face frustration, with suggestions that Everton are not planning an aggressive January recruitment drive.
The Scottish manager may need to strongly lobby the owners if reinforcements are to arrive.
Beto and Barry have managed just three league goals between them, failing to provide the physical presence and clinical finishing Everton require.
Dovbyk, despite an underwhelming spell in Italy, recently claimed the LaLiga Golden Boot with Girona, demonstrating his strength, movement, and eye for goal.
A switch to the Hill Dickinson Stadium could offer the 27-year-old the ideal platform to revive his form, although whether Everton can finalise a deal remains uncertain.
