Good News: Everton actively working to strengthen their squad before the end of the summer as they are set to seal deal for striker that will replace Neal Maupay

Everton FC is actively working on strengthening their squad ahead of the August 30 transfer deadline. With Neal Maupay’s future uncertain, the Toffees are eyeing Atletico-MG striker Alisson as a potential replacement. The 18-year-old Brazilian has caught the attention of Everton’s recruitment team, led by Kevin Thelwell, who is focused on signing younger and underrated players.

Maupay, who spent last season on loan at Brentford, has failed to impress Sean Dyche, and his contract situation makes him a prime candidate for sale. With only one year remaining on his deal, Everton risk losing him for free if they don’t sell him now. His lack of integration into Dyche’s tactical setup and the emergence of new talents like Youssef Chermiti make his departure a logical decision.

The sale of Maupay could provide crucial funds for Everton to invest in players who align with their long-term vision, enhancing squad depth and competitiveness. Meanwhile, the club has made an opening move for Alisson, with the best offer coming from the Merseyside club, according to O Tempo journalist Pedro Faria.

Everton’s interest in Alisson demonstrates their commitment to signing young, talented players who can contribute to the team’s future success. With Dyche’s guidance and Thelwell’s recruitment expertise, the Toffees are building a squad capable of competing in the Premier League.
