Everton is building for a new campaign under David Moe, reviving interest in experienced midfielders who can be used for cheap this summer.
Everton encounters confusion in pursuit of Kenny Tete
Over the past few days, Everton appeared to be closed to Fulham’s right-back Kenny Tete after being told the talk had been made on a free transfer agreement watching the Dutch pitch at Hildickinson Stadium.
However, Fabrizio Romano confirmed that Furham has submitted a new contract offer to Tete as his current term at Craven Cottage has ended.
He explained: “Fulham today sent Kenny Tete a new, improved contract proposal to Kenny Tete after agreeing to join Everton earlier this week. Fulham and Everton have a proposal to the table for right-backs that are available as free agents.”
Despite his signature and sealed deal, there may be more to do for Toffee, which has been on the market following recent developments, but David Moe doesn’t seem to waste time on his mission to strengthen.
Villarreal Forward Thierno Barry was able to join Everton following the departure of Dominic Calvert-Lewin, but will attempt to negotiate with numbers under his current £40 million release clause.

Everton may need an Idrissa Gay alternative.

Everton was able to sign Wilfred Ndidi at bargain prices
According to Talksport, Everton revives interest in Leicester City midfielder Wilfred Ndidi and has managed to land Nigeria International for £9 million due to the release clause in his contract, which is currently active after Fox’s relegation.
Manchester United are also paying attention to his situation, but the Saudi Arabian professional league club remains in the background and is ready to offer a route to escape from King Power Stadium, the 28-year-old.

Labeled as “Brilliant” by James Madison, Ndidi registered one goal and five assists in 30 appearances in his final campaign, but he was unable to help escape relegation under Roodvan Nistelroy’s stewardship.
The former KRC Genk Man, who owned a high level of pedigree, has earned 65 caps at the international level in Nigeria, and will be an ideal alternative to Orel Mangala following the latter departure.
Nevertheless, competition is fierce for his signature. This means that Everton needs to act quickly in the market to ensure that he wears another shade of blue next season.
