Tuesday’s Toffee Bites: Everton may target Fiorentina striker for some reason

We are well and truly into the second half of the season. Right now, Everton’s summer of spending in 2017 sure seems like a waste of time. Jordan Pickford looks to be quite a find. That’s fair. But Wayne Rooney and Gylfi Sigurdsson can’t play together. Davy Klaassen has gone missing. Sandro Ramirez can’t get on track. And Michael Keane can’t stay healthy. The club has a problem, but throwing money at it won’t help. The scouting teams need to be seriously analyzed. You can afford to miss on a guy like Sandro, but not with the big bucks being thrown to Keane and Klaassen.
