David Moyes is asked about a Richarlison repeat, and his answer will delight Everton fans
Everton will be looking to pull out the stops in the summer transfer window.
A quiet January market has not stopped David Moyes’ side from maintaining their electric form in the Premier League.
However, there has been one major issue over recent years at Everton which has prevented the Toffees from making any major moves in the market.
Moyes admitted he was shocked by PSR’s hold on Everton after joining midway through the January transfer window.
The club have been forced into selling some of their best players over recent years just so they can balance the books.
And Moyes has just provided an update to a question on whether Everton could be instore for a similar type of summer where players need to be sold.
David Moyes shuts down Richarlison repeat at Everton
Kevin Thelwell expects a big summer at Everton following the management of the spending which was done over January.
Everton have been forced into selling the likes of Richarlison and Anthony Gordon over the last few years.
But speaking in Friday’s press conference, Moyes does not expect the same to happen with Jarrad Branthwaite this summer.
“I think with PSR, I don’t know all the stuff about it, but I do know we’ve still got some work to do in the summer,” Moyes said after being asked about potentially repeating the Richarlison and Gordon sales.
“I was aware of it when I came in, but I’m hoping we’re now getting to stop thinking about that and beginning to think about moving forward.”
“Jarrad’s a top player and if people want to buy Jarrad, then I’ve said many times, bring a big bag of money.”
Some fans would love to see Everton re-sign Richarlison, but the Brazilian has suffered a lot of injuries since leaving Merseyside.
But as for Branthwaite, the defender has established himself as a real leader under Moyes who looks like a player ready to take the Toffees forward at Bramley-Moore Dock.
The Friedkins now need to build at Everton
Everton have been hit with a PSR update over the last week with the Premier League extending the regulations by another season.
Some have even suggested Everton could be hit by a £20m blow due to PSR being in place for another year.
However, there are still plenty of positives on Merseyside with the new ownership looking to really develop the club.
Bramley-Moore Dock will dramatically increase Everton’s revenue which will have a hugely positive effect on their finances.
But that good work off the pitch needs to be matched by improvements on it.
Jack Harrison is beginning to find his place at Everton as he could be the next in line for a rejuvenation under David Moyes.
As Harrison is now in his second season on loan at Everton, the 28-year-old’s future is up in the air.
Whether returning to Leeds United or signing on permanently with the Toffees, the winger has a big decision to make in the summer.
He has played a vital role in recent weeks due to Everton’s excessive injuries, as Harrison has shined in Everton training.
The winger is proving his worth, but where does Moyes see his future at the club.
