From the source

Everton are reportedly keeping a close eye on Tottenham Hotspur target and Real Sociedad forward Orri Oskarsson, as per TEAMtalk. Despite letting Beto leave last summer, the Toffees failed to purchase a new striker.

So, David Moyes currently has Thierno Barry as the only specialist striker option. After moving to the Hill Dickinson Stadium from Villarreal last year, the Frenchman took time to adapt to the Premier League’s physicality.

However, he has shown glimpses of his qualities this season, scoring six goals and registering a solitary assist in 10 appearances across all competitions. Now, TEAMtalk state that Everton have started exploring options to sign a new forward and are keeping a close eye on Oskarsson before making a potential swoop in January.
