Carlo Ancelotti and Marcel Brands set for transfer talks

Carlo Ancelotti is set for talks with Everton director of football Marcel Brands to decide the club’s plan of action in the January window.

Everton have already set two players for sale, but the Liverpool Echo report that more players could be sold in January.

Oumar Niasse and Cuco Martina are already on the transfer list, with Cenk Tosun potentially joining them.

The Turkish forward has not performed since moving to Everton, and could be on the move in January if Crystal Palace restart their interest in him.

Ancelotti will be keen to raise funds to make additions in January, with new recruits in defence in midfield being prioritised.

Selling Tosun will surely be one of the first steps in Ancelotti’s clear out of the Everton squad.

There are simply too many wasted players at the club right now, and Ancelotti will have to sell them to make room for some quality that Everton desperately need.

Tosun has never really worked at Everton, and if Palace are interested, they should surely sell.
