Everton must table an initial bid for Eric Junior Dina Ebimbe

At 23, Ebimbe represents not just immediate quality but also potential for growth, which is crucial for a club like the Toffees aiming to climb the Premier League standings.

His ability to play across the midfield, including as a right-back, provides tactical flexibility, which could be invaluable under Sean Dyche’s management, known for his pragmatic approach.

His comparison to Jude Bellingham, via the official Bundesliga website, due to his “rangy gait and ability to drive through opposition ranks,” highlights his potential to become a pivotal figure in the Toffees’ midfield.

Hopefully, if not him, they bring in someone else who can replace Amadou Onana who’s already starring for Aston Villa.
