‘Everton have Harrison replacement’ as Timothy Weah transfer hijack ready
Everton could potentially replace Jack Harrison with Juventus forward Timothy Weah this summer transfer window.
David Moyes relied on the Leeds United forward last season, and while the Toffees want him back, the 28-year-old has returned to West Yorkshire after his loan deal expired.
Weah’s move to the Hill Dickinson Stadium could be on the cards as the Blues look to bolster the right side of their attack.
The USA international with 44 caps for his nation may be seen as an alternative target by the Merseyside outfit, but a transfer hijack could potentially be needed.
Everton in background for Weah transfer as Juventus yet to reach agreement with Olympique Marseille
Olympique Marseille are yet to reach an agreement with Juventus for Weah amid interest from the Toffees, according to Mirko Di Natale.
The Tutto Juve journalist revealed on X (18 July) that the Blues are still keeping an eye on the 25-year-old, while the Ligue 1 outfit lead the race.
It’s been claimed that the Merseyside outfit are in the background right now as the Bianconeri continue negotiations with the French club.

Supporters expect The Friedkin Group (TFG) to invest heavily at the Toffees this summer, and it will be interesting to see what sort of business they will pull off before the end of August.
While Moyes may want Harrison to return to the Blues in the coming weeks, some supporters could potentially be against that move due to the forward’s lack of impact in the last two seasons.
Moyes should push to convince Weah about transfer
It looks like Weah wants a move to Marseille this summer, but the Merseyside outfit should work on convincing him to reconsider that decision.
Everton are entering a new era at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, which could potentially be an enticing prospect for the American forward.
TFG should utilise their connections in the USA to persuade the 25-year-old, and Moyes may also play an influential role after making considerable progress at the Toffees in the previous campaign.
The Blues certainly need to reinforce the right side of their attack soon, but only time will tell what the future holds for Weah.
