Everton are poised to bolster their midfield with a new signing, following the departure of Abdoulaye Doucoure last season. David Moyes is keen to ramp up the Toffees’ transfer activity in the coming weeks, with a central midfielder being a top priority.
The Blues’ squad depth has been depleted further with the exits of Ashley Young and Dominic Calvert-Lewin, whose contracts expired at the end of June. With the Premier League season fast approaching, Everton must strengthen their squad, and Douglas Luiz is emerging as a genuine option.
Luiz has been on Moyes’ radar for weeks, and the Brazilian midfielder has attracted interest from several English clubs this summer. His spell at Juventus hasn’t been a success, making him a more attractive prospect for Everton.
The Toffees will face stiff competition from West Ham, who are also reportedly interested in Luiz. However, Moyes is determined to find a suitable replacement for Doucoure, and Luiz’s skills and experience make him an appealing target.
With the transfer window ticking away, Everton need to act quickly to secure Luiz’s services. Moyes will be keen to finalize the deal and get the Toffees’ summer business underway, as they look to build a stronger squad for the upcoming season.
