Everton have had a rollercoaster of a season so far and has found a lot of success going forward in recent weeks, despite the poor form of their primary striker, Cenk Tosun. The Turkish centre-forward has just scored one goal during this campaign which should be a major concern for Marco Silva. Hence, the Merseyside club should look to bring in some added firepower in January as the success of their whole season could depend on it.
Welbeck: A Potential Solution To Everton’s Misery Up Top?
According to a recent report by the Mirror, the Blues are keeping tabs on Danny Welbeck’s contract situation at Arsenal ahead of a potential move during the winter transfer period. The English forward has found first-team opportunities hard to come by at the Emirates Stadium this season with most of his starts coming in the cup competitions.
With his contract set to run out at the end of the season, it makes sense for both the North London club and the striker to part ways in January which might give Everton an added incentive to get him in on a cut-price fee. Welbeck has a wealth of experience in the Premier League and might flourish with the opportunity to play regularly under Marco Silva at Goodison Park to reignite his career in the England national team.
What Will The English Forward Add To Marco Silva’s Team?
The English talent has an incredible turn of pace and is capable enough to beat the opposing defenders in 1v1 situations. He is also a very able dribbler with the ball and has enough strength to hold the ball up quite effectively in the attacking third. Despite getting limited game time this season, the 27-year-old has enjoyed a rich vein of form of late after making eight appearances for the Gunners in all competitions while scoring four goals during that time.
Is Welbeck An Ideal Signing For The Toffees?
Welbeck has everything in his locker to be a success at Goodison Park as long as he can keep his head down and score goals on a consistent basis. He would fit Marco Silva’s attacking 4-3-3 system quite well as his pace should be a massive asset for the Toffees on the counter. The English speedster will be a perfect signing for Everton as he offers a lot more than what Cenk Tosun or Dominic Calvert-Lewin has provided over the course of the past few weeks. Silva should do everything in his power to snap him up shortly.
