Terem-Moffi-celebrates-scoring-for-Lorient
Everton are considering making an approach for Lorient striker Terem Moffi, according to reports.
The Lowdown: Reinforcements required
Frank Lampard is currently under immense pressure following a poor run of results that sees his side in the relegation zone, with the need for attacking reinforcements clear.
With just 18 months remaining on his deal, Moffi has been identified as a desired target in a move that could possibly see him making his way to the Premier League.
The Latest: Everton plotting Moffi move
According to French outlet Foot Mercato (via Sport Witness), Everton and Southampton are both ‘thinking about moving’ for Moffi this winter window.
The Toffees aren’t expected to be able to splash big cash, with the report suggesting that an initial loan with an obligation to buy could well be the best option for the hierarchy.
The 23-year-old is being ‘looked at’ by the Merseyside outfit as someone who could make an impact in the final third.

The Verdict: Get it done…
Moffi has been described as a player who ‘ticks all the boxes’ by his former manager Christophe Pelissier, and looking at his numbers, Everton should act quickly to wrap this deal up.
The 6 foot 2 forward already has ten goals to his name from just 15 league starts this season, and is currently averaging two shots per game (WhoScored).
The Blues have to get some fresh faces through the door should they want to avoid the drop, and the prolific form of Moffi could be just what they need.
