Everton remain firmly in the relegation battle after their bruising 4-0 defeat to Manchester United at the weekend.
Everton reside just two points above the bottom three heading into the busy festive period and the fixtures don’t get any easier.
Everton fans wanted Sean Dyche sacked after the United debacle and it’s thought once the Friedkin Group are in post, his future at Goodison Park is likely to be under major scrutiny by the board.
Maurizio Sarri is thought to be in the picture to take over at Everton whilst Graham Potter, Edin Terzic and Sergio Conceicao are also potential candidates.
Whilst that process unfolds behind the scenes, the recruitment team are working hard to identify targets for the January transfer window.
With that said, it’s just come to light that they’re scouting a defender on the continent.
Everton set to rival Man City for Juma Bah
According to The Sun, Everton scouts are tracking Real Valladolid centre-back Juma Bah ahead of the winter transfer window.

Everton should prioritise attackers
Everton are actually well-stocked at the back with Jarrad Branthwaite, James Tarkowski, Jake O’Brien and Michael Keane.
So clearly, whilst Bah is evidently a promising talent, he shouldn’t be a priority for Everton this winter as they really need to allocate funds towards a striker and perhaps a winger.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Beto have netted a combined three league goals this season, so that’s an obvious area which needs addressing.
Everton are in desperate need of change both on and off the pitch.
Everton are really struggling this term and suffered a 4-0 defeat to Manchester United on Sunday afternoon.
There were a number of below-par performances including Jarrad Branthwaite who failed his United audition in the eyes of many.
Vitaly Mykolenko was really poor too and the only shining light of the dull afternoon at Old Trafford was Iliman Ndiaye.
Sean Dyche is under major pressure and Maurizio Sarri is being tipped to replace him on Merseyside in the next few weeks.
A managerial change likely won’t happen until the Friedkin Group complete their takeover and now there’s been a potential development on that deal.
