This stuff is a something of a low rider
After somehow contriving to lose against Fulham at Goodison Park last weekend despite having the lion’s share of the chances, Everton have decided to address the many shortcomings in goal that almost cost them their Premier League status last season. Given Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s penchant for life in the treatment room, Neal Maupay’s inability to hit a cow’s backside with a banjo and new signing Youssef Chermiti’s lack of Premier League fitness and experience, Sean Dyche is hoping to sign Ché Adams from Southampton, who are looking for a fee of £12m for the Scotland international.
Everton are also hopeful Kamaldeen Sulemana could come marching into their squad from Saints and have not given up hope of signing Leeds winger Wilfried Gnonto, who is currently on strike and hell-bent on leaving Elland Road. Porto wide man Gonçalo Borges is also getting the glad eye from the Toffees, who could face competition from West Ham in the race for the 22-year-old’s signature.
