Everton Eye ‘Drogba-esque’ Striker Spotted at Goodison Park This Week

The Toffees have struggled to find a consistent and reliable replacement for Richarlison since his £60 million move to Tottenham.

 

Dominic Calvert-Lewin, despite being a great servant to the club and lethal on his day, has had his career plagued by injuries.

 

Beto, who cost £25 million last summer, struggled to justify his price tag, though he hopes for a better second season on Merseyside.

 

Neal Maupay never looked comfortable in blue, and with just three goals in 31 games, Salomon Rondon’s performance was even less impressive.

 

However, according to reports in Italy, Everton have another striker on their radar—one with previous Premier League experience.

 

Everton Target Spotted at Goodison Park

 

Italian outlet Corriere Dello Sport reports that Everton have shown interest in Roma forward Tammy Abraham.

 

The Serie A giants played a pre-season friendly at Goodison Park on Saturday, ending in a 1-1 draw.

 

Abraham was on the bench for the visitors, with Artem Dovbyk preferred by manager Daniele De Rossi.

 

When asked about the transfer links after the match, Abraham said, “The rumours, obviously, are nice, it means you are doing well, but I am here with Roma and I am available to do my best.”

 

Roma sporting director Florent Ghisolfi also traveled with the squad to Liverpool, but the report adds that no talks have occurred between the parties so far.

 

Bournemouth also have an interest in the 26-year-old striker, whom Rio Ferdinand once praised for a “Drogba-esque” performance during his days at Chelsea.

 

HITC understands that Brentford, Newcastle, and West Ham have also shown interest in Abraham over the summer window.

 

Should Everton advance their interest in Abraham, he would become the club’s fifth signing of the summer.

 

Jesper Lindstrom and Iliman Ndiaye have already arrived to bolster Everton’s attack, while Tim Iroegbunam and Jake O’Brien have also made the move to Goodison.
