Everton are looking to add to their ranks after securing the services of Thierno Barry from Villarreal this summer.
Bournemouth goalkeeper Mark Travers appears to be the next one through the door for the Toffees.
However, David Moyes is still eyeing reinforcements in different areas ahead of the 2024/25 season.

Alan Myers issues update on the Toffees’ pursuit of a new right-winger
Alan Myers claims that he believes the Toffees are looking to sign a new right-winger this summer.
Jack Harrison returned to Leeds United and is unlikely to return to Merseyside ahead of next season.

Moyes needs attacking firepower in the club’s first season at the Bramley-Moore Dock Stadium.
They will primarily want to avoid relegation and then see if there is the option to finish in the top half.
Everton certainly need to sign a goal-scoring winger
Everton’s need for a quality right winger is critical to elevate their attacking dynamism and Premier League survival hopes.
The right flank has been a weak link, with Jack Harrison’s loan stint yielding modest returns with just one league goal and one assist last season.
Competition Appearances Goals Assists Yellow Cards Red Cards Minutes Played
Premier League 34 1 1 – – 2,083′
FA Cup 2 – – – – 47′
EFL Cup 2 – – 1 – 51′
Total 24/25 38 1 1 1 – 2,181′
Harrison’s stats last season.
His lack of consistent goal-scoring threat and creative spark limited the Toffees’ ability to break down defences, especially against low-block sides.
A high-calibre winger, capable of delivering eight to 10 league goals and five to seven assists per season, would provide the cutting edge needed to complement Barry and stretch opposition defences.
Investing in such a player, rather than settling for Harrison’s mid-tier output, ensures Everton can create more scoring opportunities, improve their attacking fluidity and secure their top-flight status in a competitive league.
Hopefully, there is progress sooner rather than later as the new signing will need to adapt to his teammates as well.
