Everton switch attention to ‘very quick’ winger after Jaden Philogene snub to join Ipswich Town

Given that Sean Dyche is unable to turn around his team’s current problems with his players, work needs to be done at Goodison Park. Two priority signings have been identified by the Friedkin Group for this month, but one of their targets has already suffered a setback. Jaden Philogene, who is now planning to move to Ipswich Town, has rejected Everton once more after expressing interest in them during the summer. However, in place of the young player, Everton has already focused on another forward who they could sign.

Everton is interested in Tom Fellows of West Brom.

Since Merseyside needs creative players, Everton is considering a move for Tom Fellows of West Brom this month. The top flight has expressed interest in the 21-year-old due to his incredibly impressive start to the Championship season. However, given Fellows’ stellar campaign for the Baggies, Team Talk suggests the Toffees may have trouble acquiring him this month.

In their pursuit of Premier League promotion, West Brom is eager to retain the 21-year-old for the rest of the campaign. Oliver Glasner’s Crystal Palace is rumored to be interested in Fellows, so it’s not just Everton that is expressing interest. Given that Dwight McNeil has been sidelined for nearly a month due to a minor injury, Everton needs some inventiveness in their lineup.However, it does not appear that this will be a simple deal to close.

Tom Fellows could significantly improve Everton.

Instead of playing on the right wing like Jack Harrison, Fellows would probably find himself in Dyche’s system. Harrison has been a huge letdown at Everton and has yet to contribute to a goal, even though he set high goals for the season. In contrast, Fellows has demonstrated an amazing amount of promise in the Championship this year. Although he hasn’t proven himself in the Premier League yet, he is outperforming all other players in the second division in terms of assists.

However, Carlos Corberan, his former manager, had nothing but praise for the young player. “With this description, you might think I’m talking about the best player in the world,” he told the Shropshire Star. “He’s a very quick player, can manage the right and left foot, and can beat players with the one-v-one.” Everton has given the Friedkin Group a £289 million cash boost, and it might be well worth the investment to spend on a player who could provide a significant upgrade.
