# Everton: Fans want Toffees to sign Jesse Lingard

**Many Everton fans are desperate for the club to sign Jesse Lingard after they were linked with a move for the Manchester United and England ace.**

The transfer deadline is fast approaching, and the Toffees have made four new signings during the summer window ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fc-everton/alletransfers/verein/29)). So far the new arrivals, [in particular](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/31/Show/England-Everton) Demarai Gray and Andros Townsend, appear to have given the Merseyside outfit a boost – the Goodison Park outfit have won two and drawn one of their opening three Premier League matches ([Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/premier-league-table)).
