Everton have placed a bid for Chelsea midfielder, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall for a summer transfer, Softfootball reports. The Toffees are a little short in the creative midfield area especially after the departure of Abdoulaye Doucoure, Ashley Young and big striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
Everton manager, David Moyes definitely wants more creative in his teams midfield and has identified Dewsbury-Hall as the player with the right key to operate in the middle. And Chelsea are open to selling the player this summer.
According to football transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano via his official X handle revealed that Eveton want to add the former Leicester City player to their team ahead of the start of next season.
He said:
“EXCLUSIVE: Everton submit official bid for Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall to join on permanent deal from Chelsea.
“Club to club talks underway, Chelsea open to this option with discussions ongoing on terms with #EFC.”
Everton featured in the premier league summer series in the United States and drew 2-2 against Manchester United. The Toffees struggled in large phases of the game, especially in the middle as they couldn’t keep possession of the ball.
Dewsbury-Hall can control the tempo of the game and is effective in both building attacks and retaining possession, combining strong defensive contributions with effective attacking play. He is a dynamic player who covers a lot of ground, excels at pressing, and is a threat both in winning the ball back and creating chances for his teammates.
Perhaps the only downside to Dewsbury-Hall’s game is his lack of consistency which happens to all players but he must work on giving a 100% at all times and the one manager that can help bring out the best in him is David Moyes if he eventually makes the move.
Dewsbury-Hall was a fringe member in the Chelsea squad for last season as they went on to win the Europa Conference League and FIFA Club World Cup after finishing fourth in the Premier League.
