Everton may be bitter rivals with Liverpool, but David Moyes could be prepared to do business with the Reds this summer.
Although Everton supporters will feel as though this season was when they finally got their club back, their Merseyside neighbours lifted the Premier League title.
Moyes has improved things massively, but the boss will be prepared to do whatever it takes, with the help of The Friedkin Group, to push the Toffees up the Premier League table next term.
With that in mind, Ben Doak could be ready to make the move across the city and play at The Hill Dickson Stadium.

Doak being pushed out of Liverpool
Arne Slot had a dream start to life at Liverpool, apart from his sending off after a late James Tarkowski equaliser at Goodison Park earlier in the season.
MORE TOFFEES STORIES
As Everton prepare to look up the Premier League table, their rivals are already making moves.
Jeremie Frimpong has already made the move to Anfield, and Florian Wirtz is set to be the next to complete a transfer from Bayer Leverkusen.
Liverpool are extending their sights even further, though, and it has now been reported that Kingsley Coman is on their list, with his future in Germany looking uncertain.
With Mohamed Salah already on the books and both Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo looking likely to stay put on Merseyside, it has been suggested by Liverpool News that Doak could be on his way out of Anfield.

Everton to pounce on Doak
Everton need more strength in the final third, particularly on the right, and Doak has already been linked with a sensational move to solve the Toffees’ issues in that area.
The 19-year-old spent the season on loan with Middlesbrough, where he tallied 10 goal contributions in 24 appearances and now seems set to take his next step forward.

Doak’s season for Middlesbrough.
Given Moyes has already spoken about his desire to significantly reduce the age of his squad, too, it comes as no surprise that he is looking at someone who could be an up-and-coming star.
The only problem that could come from this potential Doak transfer is backlash from supporters on both sides, with a possible £30million move on the cards.
However, Moyes’ priority is getting his side in shape for a more successful season, and if Doak is the answer and could be available, this would be a no-brainer.
