Sam Allardyce is eager to improve Everton’s squad in the January transfer window.

According to a report in the Daily Star, Sam Allardyce will have to sell a midfielder if he is to bring Steven N’Zonzi to Everton.

Everton have been strongly linked with a move for N’Zonzi, as they believe the French international could be a great addition.

The Toffees are said to be competing with Arsenal for the signature of N’Zonzi by the Star, with Allardyce having funds to invest in the January transfer window.

Everton are keen to add quality at the next available opportunity, but Farhad Moshiri has already told Allardyce that he needs to sell before buying.

Allardyce has already spoken about Everton’s squad being bloated, and departures are expected in the near future.

Everton will reportedly have to offload a midfielder to make room for the addition of N’Zonzi.

Allardyce has already improved Everton’s fortunes, as they have won three of his first four matches in charge.

The Toffees are currently in 10th place in the Premier League table, but have ambitions to break into the top six in the coming years.
