Football FanCast brings you the latest Everton transfer round-up.
Despite securing their Premier League survival with time to spare last season, the Toffees have been hamstrung financially due to PSR concerns. But with a new stadium on the horizon, it is imperative their final season at Goodison Park is another that sees them retain their top-flight status.
Here are the latest transfer rumours involving Everton, along with a list of the players linked with them since the end of the season.
Financial Fair Play: What is PSR, how does it work and who's in trouble?
Leicester City have become the latest club charged with an alleged PSR breach, but what could happen next?
ByStephan Georgiou Latest Everton transfer rumours Transfers in
Max Lowe: With Sheffield United set to allow Max Lowe to leave on a free this summer, Everton could be one of the clubs looking to swoop for the versatile full-back, who can also play in defensive midfield. Unfortunately, Everton have some competition for his signature, so may have to persuade Lowe to join the Toffees.
Bobby De Cordova-Reid: Reports have claimed that Everton could make a move for Fulham's Bobby De Cordova-Reid after contract talks in west London stalled. This is another potential free transfer for Sean Dyche, but once again, they will not be alone in their interest in the forward.
Jake O'Brien: Having starred for Lyon in Ligue 1 last term, Jake O'Brien has apparently gained some admirers from the blue half of Merseyside, with Everton seeking a bargain deal to bolster their defence. Everton are said to be monitoring the player ahead of a potential bid in the coming months.
Jack Harrison: Reports suggest that Everton have made the signing of Harrison a priority this summer. It is thought that a second loan deal from Leeds United could be possible given the Whites' failure to secure promotion last season.
Armando Broja: Everton are in a congested race for Armando Broja this summer, according to reports. One potential hurdle could be his reported price tag, with Chelsea thought to be open to a sale for £20m.

Transfers out
Amadou Onana: Everton could be forced into an early sale this summer, with reports claiming Amadou Onana could be sold for £50m before the end of the month in order to comply with PSR regulations. Several clubs are thought to be interested in the Belgian, so the Toffees shouldn't be short of offers this summer.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin: Everton are braced for offers for Dominic Calvert-Lewin this summer, thought reports in the past week have suggested they have made moves to extend his stay at Goodison Park. Newcastle United have been among those to show their interest in the striker, but it appears the club have opened talks over a new deal.
Jarrad Branthwaite: Defender Jarrad Branthwaite is looking like one of the more in-demand players this summer, and Premier League duo Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United have been credited with an interest. However, it appears a concrete approach has yet to surface.
Confirmed Everton 2024/25 transfers Transfers out
As the 2023/24 season officially draws to a close, Everton said goodbye to a number of first-team players whose contracts came to an end. Andre Gomes is arguably the most notable of those, with the Portuguese ending a five-year stay at the club.
Dele Alli is also now out of contract, while backup goalkeeper Andy Lonergan will also leave this summer as a free agent.

Everton 2023/24 transfers
Everton spent all their money on signing two strikers in the form of Beto and Youssef Chermiti back in last year's summer transfer window, but they haven't exactly worked out well for Sean Dyche.
Other than that, it was all down to free agent and loan signings.
Everton 2023/24 sales
Five players sealed permanent exits for cash last season, with around £65 million being raised, but this wasn't enough to avoid PSR sanctions.
A lot of the exits were players who were deemed surplus to requirements at Goodison Park. The likes of Asmir Begovic, Tom Davies, Thomas Cannon, Ellis Simms, Neal Maupay, Andros Townsend and Jean-Philippe Gbamin all fall under that bracket.
