Taty Castellanos the perfect Everton complement amid transfer latest
Tatty Castellanos has been mentioned as a potential signing for Everton this summer.
After West Ham's relegation, manager David Moyes has been linked with numerous players from his former club.
A Hammers raid could be inbound with Tomas Soucek and Jarrod Bowen also among those attracting interest.
Furthermore, Aaron Wan-Bissaka is a target at right-back, a position needed to be filled at Hill Dickinson.
However, the centre-forward role is another that could do with an upgrade.
Both Beto and Thierno Barry have struggled to make a consistent strong impression, but Castellanos could be the complimentary forward needed.
Why Taty Castellanos would be perfect fit for Everton
Everton already have two strong and physical strikers, so what they are in need of is a smaller and more battling forward to provide themselves with another way of attacking.
That describes Castellanos to a tee. At 5'10", the Argentine does not utilise his body or strenght against defenders akin to Beto or Barry.
But instead, he is a fierce battler similar to the way Carlos Tevez used to play. And that comparison was hinted towards in his West Ham announcement back in January.
At West Ham, the Argentine netted six goals in just eighteen games for the Hammers, ending the season with a 12 per cent conversion rate.
As things stand, it seems hard to see both Barry and Beto remain at Everton, but with another centre-forward needed in that case, signing a differing profile makes plenty of sense.
Could David Moyes play with two strikers?
Moyes typically only plays with one centre-forward as Beto and Barry offer similar qualities.
Neither pair complement the others style of play, but with Castellanos, that could all change.
The little-and-large combination could ultimately prove to be a devastating duo, with the taller forward having the ability to knock balls on for the either one of Barry or Beto.
Last season, Barry was extremely adept at winning the high balls, with the Frenchman winning more aerial duels (130) than any other forward in the Premier League.
With somebody with the qualities to benefit from that trait, Everton could find a new way to score goals.
That may ultimately be the deciding factor behind qualifying for Europe, with only Sunderland finishing above the Toffees with less goals scored last season.
