Everton are set for a huge summer transfer window which could completely transform their squad for the new season.
There are going to be plenty of players coming and going over the next few months at Everton.
David Moyes is well aware that he has a big job on his hands if he is to put his stamp on the squad he inherited from Sean Dyche in January.
Despite being in the job for a matter of days, Angus Kinnear has said Everton have an ‘unprecedented’ summer ahead of them.
It is not just in the transfer window where Everton face their challenges this summer with the stadium move also ahead of the club.
But they will need to be on the ball when it comes to transfers and they have now been informed of the price tag of one of their most exciting targets.

Everton and Liverpool informed of Lyon’s asking price for Rayan Cherki
With a big signing on the radar ahead of the move to the Hill Dickinson Stadium, the Friedkins could really make a splash this summer in the market.
Everton are showing an interest in Rayan Cherki from Lyon as he looks set to depart the French club.

According to L’Equipe, Lyon are looking for a fee in the region of €40m (£34m) for Cherki to move on over the coming months.
It is not just Everton who are showing an interest in the Frenchman, with a host of European powerhouses also on the scene.
Liverpool are also keen on Cherki following a seriously impressive 2024/25 campaign.
It would certainly be some coup for the Toffees to secure the signature of such an in-demand player, but they will certainly have the financial power to prise him away from France.
Cherki is being tipped as a future Ballon d’Or winner
Following the Ligue 1 conclusion at the weekend, Cherki left the pitch in tears as it appeared to be his final game for Lyon.
Any club will feel lucky to land a player of the youngster’s potential as he is being tipped to become one of Europe’s top talents.
The Athletic have labelled the 21-year-old as a ‘future Ballon d’Or winner’ which goes to show just how big a signing this could be for Everton.
Everton fans do not want Jack Harrison to sign permanently this summer as his Leeds United loan comes to an end.
Landing a player like Cherki as an upgrade would be a huge sign of intent from the Friedkins.
