Everton transfers: Sky Sports reveal huge Ernest Nuamah twist
Everton are unlikely to secure the services of Lyon midfielder in the transfer window, according to Sky Sports.
The news outlet reported via their transfer centre on 24 January at 7 pm that the 21-year-old is expected to stay put at the Ligue 1 outfit.
The Toffees had been linked with the Ghana international for a while [Daily Mail, November 2024] but they will not be signing him, at least until the summer.
Sky Sports wrote: “Everton target Ernest Nuamah looks likely to stay at Lyon until at least the end of the season.”
Given this development, it makes plenty of sense for the Toffees to change course and for Kevin Thelwell to present David Moyes with an alternative option.
Everton desperately need to sign a new attacker
The club’s dire need for a new attacker stems from a season marked by a mere 18 goals in 21 league games, highlighting a significant lack of scoring threat.
In the midst of a relegation battle, each point is crucial, and a quality forward could enhance their ability to score, thus influencing match outcomes.
David Moyes, returning to steer the club from relegation, needs offensive firepower and the board have to back him.
The current squad lacks consistent goal creators and converters, with potential exits further necessitating new talent.
Fan and club expectations are high for a turnaround and the transfer market offers a chance to secure players who align with Moyes’ vision.
With new ownership, this investment in attack isn’t just about survival but laying the groundwork for future success
