Everton have completed their 2025/26 campaign with a 13th-place finish in the Premier League.
David Moyes will already have turned his attention on to the summer transfer window, with plenty of work needing to be done.
It is undoubtedly going to be a pivotal summer for Everton who have been granted the opportunity to really push on.
Everton are expecting huge financial boosts from their stadium move and that is providing them some freedom to spend in the market.
But Moyes will be keen for the Toffees to go into the Hill Dickinson Stadium with a squad worthy of playing in such an arena.
Everton News understands Everton are targeting four key positions to improve this summer, with a new striker key to their summer business.
The Toffees are not set to discover the decision of one of their top attacking targets by the end of the week.

Manchester United still have Delap at the top of their list but the 20-year-old has also spoken with Everton.

A decision is expected ‘imminently’ with the youngster keen to return to the north west.
Everton would promise Delap regular minutes with Moyes believing Everton could have an outside chance of landing the striker.
But the Red Devils are pushing to sign the youngster following their dreadful campaign.
Delap should join Everton
A move to Merseyside would make a lot of sense for Delap.
Everton would provide Delap with the minutes he is demanding ahead of the World Cup next year.
