Everton need to desperately wake up this transfer window as fans are beginning to get impatient.
It was surely expected by now that Everton would have more than Carlos Alcaraz’s permanent move to talk about.
With it looking like Kenny Tete was destined to sign for Everton it now appears as though Tete will sign a new contract at Fulham.
This could’ve been a case of him getting more money out of Marco Silva’s side, or The Friedkin Group might not have acted quickly enough.
That now appears to be the case with this next player, as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has come out of nowhere to poach David Moyes’ target.

Everton target Mohamed Diomande receives bid from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Besiktas
The Toffees are moving slowly, and other teams are seemingly making the most of the early stages of the window.
Their main competitors this window have been Leeds United, and they haven’t been stood still with two signings already through the door.

If the background team at Everton don’t pick up the pace soon, concern could arise from Evertonians as their potential £100m budget isn’t being used.
Adding to this targets are being poached off them as Habib Diarra signed for Sunderland, and now target Mohamed Diomande could follow suit.
This is after fussballeuropa claimed that Besiktas have reportedly offered Rangers between £8.5 million and £10 million for Diomande as Solskjaer is moving quickly leaving Moyes behind.

Everton need to secure Thierno Barry quickly
With targets seemingly leaving everywhere you look, it’s a clear message to The Friedkins.
The only player who looks like a current concrete possibility of signing is Thierno Barry who could join for under £33m.
It would be a great buy yes, but there will be questions over the length it’s taken to secure the Frenchman’s signature.
He’s shown he’ll be an excellent addition, as the 22-year-old provides the threat in front of goal that Everton need.
However, a deal has to come to fruition soon otherwise like other targets, Barry could have his head turned.
The hope is that after Barry gets done, the transfers will come like London buses, but the clock is ticking for The Friedkins.
