Everton are looking in absolutely dire straits in the current situation and willing to turn around the season in their favour. They won their last match against Watford in what was a memorable comeback from a 2-0 lead that the Hornets had taken over them after a lacklustre first half.
The win showed the fighting instinct the Toffees are capable of displaying and the fact that they have ample chance of staying back in the first tier at the end of the season. However, they might need some new players in their ranks to help them get to a safe position in the league table in the near future.
One player who is in the top of the target list for the Merseyside club is the Swedish youngster Pontus Dahlberg, who is currently plying his trade at IFK Goteborg. The 18-year-old has made a name for himself with his brilliant goalkeeping skills and might be a good addition to the Toffees’ squad, who already have a young goalkeeper as their No.1 in the form of Jordan Pickford.
The Swedish youngster is one of the best players on his side and has the brilliant ability to handle the ball well and keep it safe from the opposition attackers. The player is known for his cool and composed attitude even in the face of the gravest of situations and also for his ability to make a number of crucial saves to keep his side out of harm’s way.
Jordan Pickford, who was brought in from the Championship club Sunderland after their relegation from the top flight in the last term, has not been able to carry forward his form from the last season and has already conceded 22 goals this season, which was the least expected of him. The recruitment of Dahlberg can be the indication of a change under the crossbars for the Merseyside club and might bring in some good competition for the English custodian.
The player has been a very important part of his current club and they might not be willing to let him go in the near future. However, the offer from a Premier League club might be too much to resist for the young Swedish shot stopper and he might agree to make a move out of IFK Goteborg.
The interest from Everton is set to be contested fiercely by fellow Premier League outfit Watford, who are also in need of a good goalkeeper and are eyeing the Swedish youngster for some time now.
