Everton are looking to make some moves in the summer for a new striker.
David Moyes worked his magic with the Toffees after returning to Merseyside back in January and securing a 13th-place finish.
However, there were some issues which did cause Moyes the same headache which Sean Dyche endured at Everton.
Ahead of the summer window opening, Everton are prioritising a new striker but are already experiencing some issues.
Chelsea have beaten Everton to Liam Delap which will see Angus Kinnear cross the 20-year-old off his shortlist before the window even opens.
With Everton still waiting on a decision from Dominic Calvert-Lewin, plans are being put in place to add to their attacking options.
Speaking to Everton News, TBR Football’s Chief Correspondent Graeme Bailey has shed some light on a name to keep an eye on.

Everton showing interest in Tammy Abraham
Moyes would be open to signing two strikers this summer with Armando Broja departing and Calvert-Lewin potentially joining him.

Discussing their options with Everton News, Bailey has claimed AS Roma’s Tammy Abraham could be a name to keep an eye on.
“Everton are one of the clubs aware of Tammy Abraham’s situation,” he said.
Abraham is keen to make a return to England having spent a number of years over in Italy with Roma and AC Milan respectively.
“I am told he is one David Moyes likes, and at 27 he is a very good age. An England international – he has a lot left to offer.
“Obviously if Everton want him, then the fact he is already employed by the Friedkin Group – is a bonus, but that only takes you so far – the player will decide his next move.”
West Ham have also shown interest in Abraham who still has plenty of years in him at the age of 27.
Beto has shown some promising signs playing up top for Everton under Moyes, but the Blues would like to add some competition for the starting spot.
Everton could hold advantage in pursuit for Abraham
Of course, The Friedkin Group also own Roma, which would provide Everton with an upper hand in any potential deal for the Englishman.
Roma are set to hire Gian Piero Gasperini as their new manager, but Abraham is still seeking a new challenge having moved to Rome back in 2021 for £34m.
Abraham enters the summer window with two years remaining on his contract at Roma but without any real sign of form in Serie A.

One of the major concerns will be Abraham’s dreadful injury record which could even rival that of Calvert-Lewin.
It would certainly prove a gamble, but Abraham has shown ‘amazing’ quality in the past.
