A former scout has claimed that a “really good” Premier League player would be “happy” to seal a move to Everton in the summer transfer window.
Moyes eyeing summer signings for Everton
David Moyes will know the importance of the Blues nailing their summer transfer business, with the manager reportedly personally pushing to complete the signing of Brighton striker Evan Ferguson. The 20-year-old has spent this season on loan at West Ham, having fallen out of favour with the Seagulls, but the Everton manager reportedly believes he can get the best out of the Republic of Ireland international.
In terms of other Blues-related transfer news, Monaco attacker Mika Biereth has been linked with a summer move to Merseyside, following an impressive season. The 22-year-old has scored 12 goals in just 13 appearances in Ligue 1, as well as netting twice in the Champions League for Sturm Graz, prior to his move away later in the campaign.
West Brom midfielder Tom Fellows has been backed to move to Everton numerous times, with a move almost happening in the January window, and the Premier League club are said to be confident of striking a deal this summer.
Liverpool player would be "happy" join Everton, says King
Speaking to Goodison News, former Everton scout Bryan King, who once told them to sign Alexander Isak during his time as their Scandinavian talent-spotter, said Liverpool centre-back Jarell Quansah would be “happy” to join the Blues this summer.
“This wouldn’t be the first time a Liverpool player has joined Everton. Therefore, I couldn’t see that being a problem, and I think Liverpool will sell to the club that makes them the best offer. In addition, I’d imagine Quansah would be quite happy to move across Stanley Park. He is probably already living in the Liverpool area. Therefore, a move to Everton wouldn’t cause him or his family too many problems.”
The £30,000-a-week Quansah would be a controversial signing by Everton, given the fact that he is a Liverpool player, but it is easy to see him being a good addition, should he not have a long-term future at Anfield.
The 22-year-old England international had a tough start to the season, being substituted at half-time away to Ipswich Town on the opening weekend, and he has only made two starts in the league in 2024/25. That said, Jurgen Klopp was a big admirer.
“He was really good. In these circumstances, wow. So many difficult balls to judge, to estimate where it is coming down. He did really well. On the ball, Caoimhin (Kelleher) thought ‘give him the ball quite a lot and let’s see what he can do’. He did really well there. Yes, top game, absolutely.”

Moyes needs to strengthen Everton’s frontline this summer.

It remains to be seen if Liverpool want to sell Quansah this summer, but he has the physical prowess to thrive under Moyes, as well as technical ability – he has a 91.6% pass completion rate in the league this season – and he has even been compared to Virgil van Dijk in style, which is the ultimate praise.
