Sky Sports pundit Micah Richards believes if Everton manage to re-sign Paris-Saint German midfielder Idrissa Gueye this summer they will avoid another battle against relegation.
The Blues got their season off to a losing start as they went down 1-0 at home to Chelsea on Saturday, courtesy of a Jorginho penalty. But on an evening when Frank Lampard's side lined up without a recognised No.9, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin injured and Salomon Rondon suspended, there were positives to take.
However, Everton boss Lampard will know his squad needs further reinforcements - and not just up front. There have been reports today that the Blues are set to sign Conor Coady while Amadou Onana's move to Goodison Park is close.
