Kevin Campbell thrilled as Everton hunt Denzel Dumfries – Exclusive
We’re delighted to welcome former Everton striker Kevin Campbell as our exclusive columnist. Each week the former Toffees captain will be giving his views on the biggest talking points at Goodison Park…
Kevin Campbell believes PSV Eindhoven right-back Denzel Dumfries could the perfect signing for Everton this summer.
Mino Raiola is reportedly set to solve the future of the Dutch international this summer, as he currently shines at the EUROs.
Campbell insisted that the right-back ticks every single box of what is needed at Goodison Park, regardless of the manager situation.
Speaking exclusively to Goodison News, Campbell said, “I think he looks the part.
“He played right up and pushed up like a winger, putting the opposition under pressure. I think he’d be a good signing.
“A young, fit, hungry player, that ticks all the boxes for Everton.”
Perfect.
Dumfries was everywhere over the weekend when the Netherlands crept past Ukraine in a thriller.
After scoring the winner, it cemented his man of the match status and proved why numerous clubs in Europe are interested.
Ben Godfrey being placed into a square hole won’t work for another season, he needs to be unleashed in his natural position.
Seamus Coleman is effective of course, but what you can’t guarantee is his fitness, so Dumfries coming in could be perfect.
As Campbell says, he ticks all of the boxes, and we have to make smart decisions in the window either than mistakes like in recent years.
It will all depend on our new manager, but it appears as though Marcel Brands is making his moves either way.
