Everton striker Cenk Tosun has struggled for goals ever since he moved to Goodison Park.

If Everton manage to get rid of Cenk Tosun for £20 million, it will be the final piece of impressive work done by Marcel Brands in an excellent summer for the Toffees.

Everton have done some strong business in the past transfer window, with the signings of Alex Iwobi, Moise Kean and Jean-Philippe Gbamin particularly eye catching.

Brands has become a very popular figure at Goodison Park during his time there.

And if he manages to raise £20 million for Tosun, it will be another sign of the Dutchman’s expertise in the transfer market.

The Sun on Sunday (11/8; page 59) claims that Everton want to receive a considerable fee for the Turkish forward, as they make a big effort to sell him.

Tosun has made a very limited impact at Everton during his 20 month stay at the club so far, and has hit the net just eight times.

If Everton were to receive almost all the money that they paid to buy him from Besiktas then it would be a major boost.

It was feared that the Toffees would have to take a huge loss on the striker if they did sell him this summer.

But it seems that Brands may still have one more trick up his sleeve this summer, as Everton are optimistic of getting a big fee for the struggling forward.
