Everton boss Marco Silva is said to have big plans to improve his squad at Goodison Park.

If Everton can seal the additions of Bertrand Traore and Cengiz Under this summer, then they would almost have all the firepower they need for a top six push.

TMW claim that Everton are interested in Roma winger Under, while L’Equipe claim that Traore is a £40 million target.

The pair would certainly help to increase Marco Silva’s side’s attacking threat for next season, and Everton would have a frontline which would be the envy of most teams in England.

Traore would offer Everton the electric pace which they currently lack, while Under would just add to the creativity available at Goodison Park.

With the Toffees already having Richarlison, Gylfi Sigurdsson and Bernard at the club, Silva already has strong options in forward positions.

But Traore’s and Under’s arrivals would give Everton the depth required to push for the top six.

Everton would still need a striker to take advantage of all the creative options on offer at Goodison Park.

However, if Everton can pull off a double swoop for Under and Traore this summer then they would be a big step closer to completing an attacking line-up which would look hugely exciting for next season.
