Everton considering Elijah Adebayo signing
Elijah Adebayo’s potential move to Everton is gaining traction, especially with Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s future at Goodison Park in doubt. The 26-year-old Luton Town striker could be an intriguing option for the Toffees, particularly if they decide to cash in on Calvert-Lewin in January. Adebayo’s impressive performances in the Premier League last season, despite Luton’s relegation, have caught the eye, with his 10 goals in 16 starts showcasing his potential.
Standing at 6ft 4in, Adebayo fits the mold of a Sean Dyche striker—strong, quick, and aerially dominant. His ability to hold up play and work hard off the ball aligns perfectly with Dyche’s tactical approach. Everton’s struggles in front of goal this season, managing just two goals in their opening three games, underline the need for reinforcements. Adebayo’s arrival could be a much-needed boost in their fight against relegation.
However, Luton Town’s valuation of £15m-£20m for their star man could pose a challenge for Everton, who may need to offload Calvert-Lewin to finance the deal. The next few months will be crucial as Everton evaluate their options and look to bolster their attack. A move for Adebayo in January could be pivotal for the Merseyside club’s survival hopes.
