Everton’s busy summer continues as the club prepares for a new chapter, with their move to the Hill Dickinson Stadium signalling the start of a fresh era on Merseyside.

David Moyes is leading the rebuild in his first summer back at the club, with key figures like Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Abdoulaye Doucoure among those to have moved on from Everton.

In their place, the club have focused on adding youthful energy to the squad, securing signings such as Thierno Barry and Adam Aznou.

Now, Everton’s renewed interest in Dewsbury-Hall has sparked excitement among the squad, with vice-captain Tarkowski publicly reacting to the latest developments.

Everton supporters had already shown enthusiasm for Dewsbury-Hall’s arrival following earlier reports that Everton were advancing in talks, and the latest update suggests the deal is now on the verge of completion.

The former Leicester man endured a limited role during his debut season at Stamford Bridge, making just two Premier League starts.

However, he still managed to register nine goal contributions across all competitions.

Football Insider previously reported that Everton had made a push to sign Dewsbury-Hall in January, but Chelsea were only willing to sanction a permanent move, halting any chance of a loan deal.

Now, Everton have returned and look to have finally secured the player on a permanent basis.

While the club close in on Dewsbury-Hall, their pursuit of Southampton’s Tyler Dibling has hit a stumbling block.

Everton have had two bids turned down for Dibling, with Southampton holding out for a reported £50 million fee for the promising youngster.

Fans have urged Everton to push for Dibling’s signature since interest first surfaced, especially amid previous competition from the likes of Tottenham and Newcastle.

However, with the Saints’ valuation proving steep, it remains to be seen whether the Toffees will return with a third offer.
