Evan Ferguson agents to make contact with Everton after latest transfer agreement
Everton now clearly have an opportunity to tempt Evan Ferguson away from AS Roma in the winter transfer window.
David Moyes is looking for a new striker at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, but the Toffees are likely to only complete loan deals in January.
The Scottish manager is evidently in need of more firepower up front, with Beto and Thierno Barry scoring four goals combined in the Premier League.
Ferguson has emerged as a potential target for Moyes, and it could potentially be easy to convince the Republic of Ireland international to swap the Italian capital for Merseyside.
Everton to take advantage of Donyell Malen deal at AS Roma
Reports suggest that Roma are closing in on a deal for Aston Villa forward Donyell Malen.
Subsequently, the Irish Independent have raised doubts over Ferguson’s prospects at the Stadio Olimpico, which will surely give the centre-forward’s agents something to think about.
The 21-year-old has made 16 Serie A appearances this season, scoring three goals and providing one assist, and Gian Piero Gasperini doesn’t seem to be a big fan of his.
With the addition of Malen at Roma, competition for places in the starting lineup will undoubtedly increase in the Italian capital.

Moyes may get Fenerbahce striker Youssef En-Nesyri in January, but if a deal for the Morocco international doesn’t materialise, The Friedkin Group can surely use their connections in Italy.
Hill Dickinson Stadium fear the worst after what David Moyes does
Moyes is hoping to qualify for Europe via the Premier League, with the Blues currently four points behind fifth-place Brentford.
Everton could’ve been in a much better position right now had it not been for their inconsistency this season at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
The loss to Sunderland in the FA Cup third round at home didn’t please many fans, and doubts have been raised about the Scottish manager’s ability to succeed in L4.
There is certainly an acknowledgement that Moyes is hampered by the lack of depth in his squad, and that’s something TFG can address in the coming weeks if they want to.
