Opinion: Thelwell Can Secure Everton’s Move for Attacker Following Fabrizio Romano’s Update
Everton has had a busier start to the summer transfer window than anticipated, with several players coming and going from Goodison Park.
Sean Dyche is eager to strengthen his squad, particularly in the forward positions, before the Premier League season begins. Although no deals are imminent, securing a new number nine is likely a priority.
Speculation surrounds Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s future as he enters the final year of his contract at Everton, with some suggesting the former England international might not renew.
If Calvert-Lewin departs, acquiring a new striker becomes essential for Dyche and Kevin Thelwell. One potential target linked to Goodison Park this summer is Roma’s Tammy Abraham, reportedly available according to Corriere Della Sera on June 17.
Everton faces competition for Abraham’s signature, but a recent update from Fabrizio Romano suggests the opportunity remains for Thelwell to secure the forward. In his Daily Briefing on June 30, Romano noted, “Nothing is advanced yet on Tammy Abraham’s future, despite links with AC Milan. I expect the former Chelsea striker to leave Roma, possibly for another club in Italy or a return to England. It’s quiet now, but movement is likely.”
While a move to Milan seems unlikely, the race to sign Abraham is open, with several clubs potentially vying for his transfer this summer.
Premier League teams will have greater spending flexibility after the PSR deadline, and if Everton’s interest in Abraham is serious, they have a chance to bring him back to England.
Whether Thelwell and his team pursue this deal remains uncertain, but it appears to be a transfer that could happen soon.
