Next Few Hours Critical as Everton Attempt to Hijack Ipswich Transfer Deal – Reports
Everton Joins Race to Sign Napoli Midfielder Jens Cajuste Despite Ipswich Agreement, Reports Tutto Napoli
According to Corriere del Mezzogiorno, reported by the Italian news outlet on August 15, the next few hours are crucial as both teams vie for the 25-year-old Sweden international Jens Cajuste.
Brentford is now out of the race for the central midfielder.
Everton must push hard to sign Jens Cajuste
The club’s interest in Cajuste should be driven by his potential to significantly enhance the squad’s midfield dynamics.
Known for his versatility and physical presence, Cajuste could offer Everton a robust option in central midfield.
He can operate as a box-to-box player or slide into a defensive role if needed.
His ability to win duels, combined with growing technical proficiency, makes him an asset in both defensive and offensive transitions.
Given Everton’s recent history of needing adaptable players for various tactical setups under different managers, Cajuste’s versatility is crucial.
Moreover, his age suggests a long-term investment, aligning with Everton’s strategy to build a squad blending experience and youth.
His signing could also signal a shift towards a more dynamic midfield, providing the necessary energy and tactical flexibility that the Toffees might lack in their current lineup. Cajuste could be an ideal replacement for Amadou Onana.
