"Everton are weighing up the possibility of adding a central midfielder during the January transfer window, with the club keen to cover the temporary loss of Idrissa Gueye, who is currently away on international duty at the Africa Cup of Nations. The Toffees' midfield options have been stretched by Gueye's absence, prompting manager David Moyes to explore short-term solutions that can provide stability and Premier League experience during a crucial period of the season."
"As a result, Everton are open to the idea of a loan signing, rather than committing significant funds in January. Two names that have emerged as potential options are Manchester United midfielder Kobbie Mainoo and Manchester City star Kalvin Phillips, according to Sky Sports. Both players fit the profile Moyes is believed to be seeking. Premier League experience, highly talented with the ball and the ability to cope with the physical demands of English football."
Everton face a temporary midfield shortage while Idrissa Gueye is on international duty at the Africa Cup of Nations. Manager David Moyes wants a short-term solution that provides defensive stability, ball-winning ability and immediate Premier League experience. The club prefers a player who can step in without a lengthy adaptation period and is open to a loan rather than a permanent January outlay. Two potential targets identified are Kobbie Mainoo from Manchester United and Kalvin Phillips from Manchester City. Mainoo could gain regular minutes, while Phillips offers high-level experience despite limited recent game time.
