David Moyes will have a headache for selections this season, and a possible new signing will only add to his difficulties.
Everton don’t have that much time left to complete any remaining transfers this summer.
The deadline on September 1 is fast approaching, and Moyes will know plenty of areas have been left untouched.
Throughout the window, Everton have been expected to spend £100 million, and after just over £74 million so far, there is still enough funds available.
Despite seven new arrivals through the door, Moyes knows another position is desperately needed, and Antonio Conte has already revealed a candidate’s perfect position.
Antonio Conte said Everton target Yves Bissouma enjoys playing in the number ten
After much debate over the three areas still needed, it’s looking quite clear that a right-winger, right-back, and central midfielder are the topics of discussion.
This is where Yves Bissouma could come in, as Everton are ‘monitoring’ Bissouma this window.

The Tottenham midfielder comes with Premier League experience, which Moyes could be after, and in 2022, Antonio Conte revealed where the 28-year-old fits in best.
After a 2-0 win vs Everton, Conte said: “I think Yves Bissouma was the best solution because he enjoys playing in front of central defenders with two midfielders behind him.”
A deal happening became more realistic after Bissouma was left out of Spurs’ squad, and now the Scotsman has the answer to where he would thrive.
However, this might not be what the Toffees manager wanted to hear after a plan seems to have already been put in place.
David Moyes might have to avoid Yves Bissouma with Jack Grealish occupying number ten
It looks quite clear that, despite Bissouma traditionally being a more defensive-minded player, the 28-year-old prefers an attacking position.
His impact off the bench during this game in 2022 was seen, as he ultimately played a big role in defeating Frank Lampard’s side during his first season since his £35 million from Brighton.
However, even though the midfielder shines in this area, it looks pretty obvious that Jack Grealish could be in the way.
Grealish is expected to play number ten for Everton, so it could mean Moyes avoids a signing for the Tottenham star.
