Everton have been actively pursuing new signings in the transfer market this summer, with their focus now shifting to a potential new striker.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s future at Goodison Park is uncertain as he enters the last year of his contract, raising the possibility of a departure before the transfer window closes.
Roma forward Tammy Abraham has been linked as a target for Everton, but recent reports from Italy indicate that he is more interested in a move to AC Milan.
With Abraham’s potential move to Everton now unlikely, attention may turn back to Eddie Nketiah as a possible alternative. The Arsenal striker has been on the radar of several Premier League and European clubs, with Marseille reportedly close to securing his signature.
However, negotiations between Arsenal and Marseille are ongoing, giving Everton a slim chance to swoop in and secure Nketiah’s services before the window shuts.
If Everton can reach an agreement with Arsenal, they have the financial means to compete with Marseille’s offer and keep Nketiah in the Premier League.
It remains to be seen whether Everton will revive their interest in Nketiah in the coming days. Time is running out for them to make a decision, but a late move could still be possible.
