Everton’s January transfer rumours: Who might sign and who (almost) definitely isn’t

Read Everton evaluated several players linked with Everton ahead of the January transfer window, highlighting potential targets alongside more improbable links. The outlet identified Bayer Leverkusen striker Christian Kofane, BK Hacken midfielder Abdoulaye Doumbia, and Rennes forward Esteban Lepaul as the most plausible targets to monitor. However, manager David Moyes previously stated that Everton currently have no plans to make signings in January.

The report also downplayed multiple speculative links, questioning the likelihood of moves for Crystal Palace forward Jean-Philippe Mateta, Flamengo winger Samuel Lino, and Napoli midfielder Kevin De Bruyne. Several other attacking options, including Dion Beljo, Kelvin Yeboah, Nicolo Tresoldi, Orri Oskarsson, and Tommy Lonergan, were noted as having thin evidence connecting them to concrete January deals.
