David Moyes to prioritise Artem Dovbyk signing at Everton after Premier League reveal
Roma striker Artem Dovbyk could potentially push Everton to a European spot in the Premier League.
The Ukraine international, who has played 40 times for his country, has emerged as a target for the Toffees ahead of the winter transfer window.
There are talks of a swap deal that could include Beto and Dovbyk in January, with the Guinea-Bissau attacker going to the Serie A giants.
Thierno Barry finally scored his first goal against Nottingham Forest at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, but the Merseyside outfit clearly need more firepower up front.
Everton one of the lowest scorers in Premier League
Only Forest and Wolves have scored fewer goals than the Toffees in the Premier League this season.
West Ham United and Leeds United, who are in a fierce relegation battle, have found the back of the net more times than Moyes’ team.
If The Friedkin Group have any hope of qualifying for Europe at the Hill Dickinson Stadium in the current campaign, then they arguably need to invest in a striker.
With the American owners also holding a stake in Roma, Moyes should look to prioritise Dovbyk’s arrival at the Blues.
Moyes may be left disappointed by TFG in January, with the Merseyside outfit not actively looking to recruit players, but the Scottish manager must push the owners to bolster his squad.
Artem Dovbyk to bring what’s missing at Hill Dickinson Stadium
Beto and Barry have failed to be ruthless in the Premier League, with just three goals between them this season.
Everton are undoubtedly in desperate need of a striker who can bully opposition defenders and find the back of the net.
While Dovbyk hasn’t been at his best at Roma, he won LaLiga’s top scorer award not so long ago with Girona, showcasing his strength and physicality.
The Hill Dickinson Stadium may be the perfect place for the Ukraine international to reignite his career, but it remains to be seen whether a deal can be done for him.
