da realbet： Everton in the past haven’t spent big in order to stay consistent in challenging for a spot in Europe, however this summer they’ve shattered their transfer record by signing Chelsea’s Romelu Lukaku for £28.million.
da pixbet： Yet after three games, they’ve only managed to collect two points. Manager Roberto Martinez’s attacking system seems to be bringing goals, however they’ve also managed to ship it in at the other end.
It seems that now with every other club spending to compete in the English top flight, Everton may need to re-enter the market this January to keep themselves in with a fighting chance.
Here are SIX TRANSFERS Everton can complete in January.

Alessio Cerci

Alessio Cerci has been the subject of interest from Europe’s top sides, but Everton are looking to bring the Torino attacking midfielder to the Premier League.
The five-month injury to Ross Barkeley seems to have put the Italian on Everton’s radar, and would be the perfect player to create chances as well as chip in with goals himself.
Able to play anywhere in the attacking third, Cerci scored 13 goals and assisted another ten in the Serie A last season.
Carlos Bacca
Carlos Bacca became an Arsenal target on deadline day, but instead the Gunners ended up landing Danny Welbeck in a £16million deal.
However prior to Wenger’s interest, Everton were keeping a close eye on the Colombian to compete with Romelu Lukaku as the lone striker.
Bacca scored 14 goals for Sevilla in the league last season, as well as another seven in Europe to propel them to the Europa League trophy.
Tom Cleverley
Tom Cleverley may be the subject of abuse at Manchester United, but the truth is the Englishman does have technical ability and contributes defensive.
Roberto Martinez was hoping to sign Cleverley before the end of the window, however joined Aston Villa on a loan deal.
It would therefore be possible that the Toffees attempt to sign the midfielder in January, so that once his stint with Villa comes to an end he makes an instant switch to Goodison Park.
Bruma

Another player Roberto Martinez was trying to sign during the transfer window, Bruma only joined Galatasaray from Sporting Lisbon a year ago but only managed seven appearances.
The Toffees seem to favour playing a lone striker flanked by quick wingers, and the 19-year-old fits the bill.
Roberto Martinez could make another attempt to sign Bruma in January to give the likes of Kevin Mirallas, Steven Pienaar, and Aiden McGeady some competition.
Clement Chantome
After the long injury layoff to Ross Barkeley, Everton were looking to bring Paris Saint-Germain Clement Chantome to be his direct replacement.
However things didn’t go as planned, and the 26-year-old – who wasn’t going to get any first team chances in Paris – decided to make a loan move to Toulouse.
But Martinez could still see the Frenchman as a long-term solution for Gareth Barry, who isn’t getting any younger.
Jonathan Biabiany
Jonathan Biabiany has plied his trade in the Italian Serie A for some time, but the pacey winger is looking to make a step up after performing brilliantly for Parma these past season.
A move to AC Milan looked on the cards during the summer, but it didn’t pan out giving an opportunity for Everton to come in for a January swoop.
