David Moyes may hand out debut against Bournemouth after Everton’s latest update – opinion.
Everton set for FA Cup clash against Bournemouth in fourth-round trip south this weekend.
David Moyes faces some key decisions ahead of Saturday’s game, with several injuries to consider as he looks to keep Everton’s survival hopes alive.
The January transfer window proved disappointing for the Toffees. Despite targeting two signings at the start of the month, they only managed to secure one, bringing in Carlos Alcaraz on an initial loan deal.
Everton will also have a score to settle with Andoni Iraola’s Bournemouth after Cherries fans mocked them following last month’s encounter.
However, Moyes may tweak his starting XI to maximize his squad’s effectiveness in the relegation battle.
Carlos Alcaraz in Everton Training
Having signed earlier in the week, Alcaraz has vowed to give his all for Everton.
The 22-year-old joined on loan, with a clause that could make his move permanent after eight appearances.
On Thursday, Everton shared images from their latest training session at Finch Farm, where Alcaraz was spotted getting involved.
Interestingly, he was seen wearing a snood, an item previously banned under Sean Dyche.
Despite this, Alcaraz appears eager to hit the ground running, and with his quick integration into training, he could be in line for his debut against Bournemouth this weekend.
Alcaraz Determined to Make an Impact
Kevin Thelwell is excited about Alcaraz’s arrival, highlighting the midfielder’s versatility as a valuable asset for Moyes.
The Argentine has also expressed his enthusiasm on social media, writing: “I’m very happy for this new challenge, a new chapter begins with @everton.
LET’S GO! Thank you to my family and my team.”
Having already gained experience in English football, Alcaraz could seamlessly slot into Moyes’ starting XI and make an immediate impact.
