Everton could sign a right winger, a right-back and a defensive midfielder after completing Jack Grealish deal

Everton could look to add a right winger, a right-back and a defensive midfielder to their squad after completing a deal to bring Jack Grealish to the Hill Dickinson Stadium club, according to former Sky Sports journalist and Toffees insider Alan Myers.

Everton are signing the Manchester City attacker on loan for the rest of the season, with an option to sign him for £50 million included in the deal.

Everton have added Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Charly Alcaraz, Thierno Barry, Mark Travers and Adam Aznou to their squad so far this summer.

They need more signings after losing plenty of players at the end of last term, with 12 players leaving.

Neal Maupay, Mason Holgate, Joao Virginia, Ashley Young, Asmir Begovic, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Abdoulaye Doucoure and Billy Crellin departed the club.

Orel Mangala, Jesper Lindstrom, Jack Harrison and Armando Broja also left at the end of their loan deals.

The Merseyside club have Southampton winger Tyler Dibling on their radar as they eye a squad overhaul, but they have had three bids for the 19-year-old knocked back.

The Championship club want a deal totalling £50m for the teenage sensation and a 25 per cent sell-on clause must be included in any deal.

Moyes may be forced to look elsewhere if the Saints keep playing hardball, and 21-year-old Leicester City winger Abdul Fatawu is also an option.

They need a squad capable of hitting the ground running in the new season after moving to a new Stadium, and there are roughly three weeks left for them to make much-needed additions to their squad this summer.

Moyes will fancy his chances of doing a better job this term as Everton eye a place in Europe at the end of 2025-26, but he needs all the support he can get from the Friedkin Group (TFG) if the club are to punch above their weight going forward.
