Everton could bring in two strikers this summer transfer window.
Armando Broja and Dominic Calvert-Lewin have both left Everton, so there is a pretty big void to fill up front.
Beto is the only senior striker at the club at the moment, with Youssef Chermiti still finding his feet in men’s football.
Chermiti was linked to Stoke City earlier on in the window and could yet secure a season-long loan to the Championship.
Thierno Barry is close to joining Moyes’ squad, and once he’s through the door, Everton could accelerate a deal to sign a free agent striker.

Everton given boost in pursuit of Newcastle United striker Callum Wilson
Everton have been looking at Callum Wilson over the last couple of months, with Moyes open to the idea of signing two centre-forwards.
Wilson has enjoyed a prolific career, netting a whopping 141 goals across spells at Newcastle United, Bournemouth and Coventry City.
The 33-year-old has also played on the international stage with England, so clearly he’d be a smart back-up addition.

Now, Newcastle have just confirmed that Wilson will be leaving the club on a free transfer, which opens the door for the Toffees to land his signature for nothing.
Wilson injury record a concern
The only concern with Wilson is his injury record, which has plagued his career over the last couple of seasons on Tyneside.
The veteran forward missed 14 games through injury last term and 15 the prior campaign, so that is something to bear in mind.
However, if he can stay fit, Wilson is probably the best second or third-choice striker out there, so there’s plenty of reason to strike a deal.
According to Capology, the former Bournemouth frontman was on around £46,000-a-week, so it’d be a feasible deal to do for the Toffees.
