Five central defenders Everton could sign this transfer window

Everton approach this summer’s transfer window with a desire to give new manager Marco Silva a refreshed roster.

The team that spluttered to an eighth placed finish in the Premier League missed out on European football, and manager Sam Allardyce was relieved of the duties he took from Ronald Koeman earlier in the campaign.
