Impending Arrival on Merseyside
Everton are on the brink of finalising the transfer of Jesper Lindstrom, with the Napoli winger arriving in Merseyside to undergo a medical ahead of his anticipated move. The 24-year-old Danish player is poised to become part of the Toffees’ squad, with the deal expected to be sealed within the next few days.
Loan Fee and Transfer Details
The Premier League club is set to pay a £2 million loan fee for Lindstrom’s services. Although there were discussions about a potential swap involving Everton’s Vitaliy Mykolenko, those negotiations fell through as new manager Sean Dyche expressed a desire to retain the Ukrainian defender.
Financial Flexibility Post-Onana Sale
With the recent £50 million departure of Amadou Onana, Everton’s coffers have been replenished, enabling them to invest in the squad without the fear of breaching Profit and Sustainability regulations. This financial freedom comes at a crucial time as Everton looks to strengthen their team.
Lindstrom’s Role at Napoli
During his stint with Napoli, Lindstrom has largely been utilized as a rotational player, frequently coming off the bench. His 29 appearances for the Serie A side have amounted to just 587 minutes of playing time, suggesting a move could provide him with a more prominent role.
Everton’s Search for Wingers
Following the exits of Lewis Dobbin and Arnaut Danjuma, Everton have identified the wing as a key area for reinforcement. Lindstrom’s expected arrival addresses this need, with Sean Dyche prioritizing the addition of wide players to his attacking arsenal. The club has also welcomed Jack Harrison back on loan from Leeds United, marking another step in their summer recruitment drive.
Strategic Summer Signings
Everton are not stopping at Lindstrom and Harrison, as they reportedly have plans to make two significant signings to boost their offensive capabilities. With the summer transfer window in full swing, the Merseyside outfit is looking to build a squad capable of achieving their ambitions in the upcoming season.
