Everton\u2019s focus is going to be on finding a new striker in the summer transfer market. <\/strong><\/p>\n

David Moyes<\/a> has already experienced a number of issues when it comes to his attacking options since arriving in January. <\/p>\n

Questions remain over the future of Dominic Calvert-Lewin who has not signed a new contract<\/a>, despite the offers from the club. <\/p>\n

Everton<\/a> have relied on Beto to lead the front line, but even the Portuguese striker has experienced his own issues after a bright start under Moyes. <\/p>\n

With Calvert-Lewin and Armando Broja both potentially departing the club over the summer, Everton are prioritising the signing of a new striker<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Everton News<\/strong>, TBR Football\u2019s Chief Correspondent\u00a0 Graeme Bailey<\/a> has shared his understanding on the interest growing in a seriously exciting striker. <\/p>\n

Everton have some exciting young prospects<\/a> at Moyes\u2019 disposal, but the club need proven starters to bolster the quality ahead of the new season.<\/p>\n

And Bailey has told Everton News<\/strong> that Strasbourg striker Emanuel Emegha is a player who is emerging on the radar at Finch Farm.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s on Everton\u2019s list. Unlikely that Chelsea will take him to Stamford Bridge,\u201d said Bailey. <\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s very, very, very good. West Ham have been looking at him, but Everton have also been doing the rounds on him for a few weeks. He\u2019s definitely an option.\u201d<\/p>\n

It has also been suggested Everton are showing an interest in Liam Delap<\/a>, but the Toffees will face some serious competition for his signature. <\/p>\n

The Ipswich Town striker has the majority of the Premier League on red alert ahead of their looming relegation back to the Championship. <\/p>\n

Emanuel Emegha has become one of Ligue 1\u2019s top talents<\/p>\n

It has been a seriously impressive season for both Strasbourg and Emegha who are taking Ligue 1 by storm. <\/p>\n

The French outfit are currently occupying fourth spot in the table and looking to secure Champions League qualification.<\/p>\n

A big reason behind their success has been down to the 22-year-old striker. <\/p>\n

This is a player who has scored more goals than all of Everton\u2019s striker\u2019s combined this season and is only at the start of his career.<\/p>\n\n2024\/25 Ligue 1<\/td>\nTotal<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nAppearances (starts)<\/td>\n23 (23)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nMinutes<\/td>\n1949<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nGoals<\/td>\n12<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nAssists<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

The French media<\/a> are well aware of this and have hailed the youngster as \u2018the player of the year\u2019 for his efforts of the Dutch centre-forward.<\/p>\n

As a result, he is catching the attention of sides across the Premier League. <\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Everton\u2019s focus is going to be on finding a new striker in the summer transfer market.
