Life under Ronald Koeman has been a mixed back for the Everton fans propping up the bar in the Transfer Tavern this season, who have seen some initial optimism crushed by some dire performances.
Still, the Toffees in the Tavern believe the Dutchman is embarking upon a long-term project at Goodison Park and will stick with their new boss through thick and thin it seems.
To that end, our Merseyside locals have been happy to read reports from the Daily Mail.
They suggest the club are confident they have won the race to sign promising Charlton forward Ademola Lookman, with a deal reportedly close.
Having hugely impressed for the Addicks since breaking into the first-team last year, the 19-year-old is believed to have also attracted attention from the Premier League’s big boys.
Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester City are thought to have cast keen eyes over his situation at the Valley, though it is Everton who are said to be closing in on a January deal.
How much of a coup is this for Everton? Let us know below…
