Everton have multiple targets this summer as David Moyes aims to push the Toffees up the Premier League table.
A complete rebuild is expected at the Merseyside club in the upcoming transfer window.
Multiple players are expected to leave Goodison Park as Moyes looks to shape the squad in his own image.
Jarrad Branthwaite is just one player whose time with Everton could be coming to an end this summer.
However, Moyes is planning on using any incoming money on signings, with Liam Delap heavily linked to the Toffees.

Liam Delap is one of Everton’s targets this summer as Moyes looks to add more attacking threat to his squad.
The Toffees only scored 42 Premier League goals this season, the lowest outside of the bottom three.
On top of this, Beto has been linked with a move to Leeds United, heightening the need for a striker.
Delap’s form at relegated Ipswich has attracted attention from multiple clubs.
Moyes recently admitted that he held talks with Delap over a potential transfer to Everton.

Everton need multiple strikers this summer to solve goalscoring issues
While Delap would have been a great signing for Everton, he was not solving their goalscoring issues by himself.
The Toffees must target multiple striker additions if they are to end their blunt attack.
This has to be a priority for Moyes this summer as the Merseyside club could be dragged into a relegation battle next season if they do not fix this issue.
Hopefully, Everton have plenty of strikers on their shortlist in case Delap does sign for Chelsea.
