Everton already now “working” on move to sign “outstanding” summer target

Everton have almost guaranteed their place in the top-flight next season and David Moyes will hope the club’s impending move to Bramley Moore Dock coincides with plenty of summer transfer business.

Moyes putting summer transfer plans in motion

Following a chaotic few years at Everton, David Moyes has brought an air of stability as they prepare for a new era once their emotional farewell to Goodison Park occurs. Only five Premier League matches remain at their current home before the much-anticipated stadium transition takes place. The Friedkin Group have also cleared most of the Toffees’ £600 million debtso there should also be money added to the transfer kitty ahead of the new season.

PSR regulations may determine the level of business Everton can conduct, but nothing will dampen the spirits of supporters who have waited years for their club to be on a solid financial footing.

Highlighting Moyes’ level of ambition, AC Milan loanee Tammy Abraham is said to be a target for the Toffees as the Scot profiles reinforcements to bolster his forward line. On the same token, West Ham star Tomas Soucek and Brentford’s Christian Norgaard have been earmarked to offer competition in the engine room.

Setting out their stall, there is finally some optimism on the blue half of Merseyside and scope to roadmap an upward trajectory over the coming years instead of fighting instability within the ranks. Now, Everton are reportedly making advances to solve a problem position.

Everton now looking at Sunderland defender Dennis Cirkin

According to journalist Graeme Bailey, via Everton News, the Toffees are lining up a move for Sunderland full-back Dennis Cirkin as they look to provide competition for Vitaly Mykolenko on the left-hand side of defence.

The Ukraine international is the only senior left-back on the books at Goodison, with Ashley Young often deputising in his absence due to his experience and versatility.

Everton could save millions by promoting this talented 18-year-old striker.

Cirkin is viewed as an “outstanding talent” and several Premier League clubs are set to try and lure him away from the Stadium of Light in the close season, with Everton among those already “working” on the foundations of a deal.

The Dublin-born star has registered five goal contributions in 31 appearances as the Black Cats remain in the hunt for promotion. Formerly of Tottenham Hotspur, Cirkin has completed 20 successful dribbles this term and won 183 duels on league duty.

Squad depth at Everton is an area that the Friedkin Group will likely earmark for improvement once the window opens, and the ex-England Under-20 international possesses the potential and sell-on value needed for fans to get behind a potential swoop.
