Everton could turn to Jamie Vardy after failing to recruit a new centre-forward before the transfer window closed. According to The Sunthe Toffees are studying the possibility of recovering the 39-year-old English striker for free, free since his departure from Cremonese at the end of last season. David Moyes currently only has Thierno Barry as a true center forward after the sale of Beto. Everton had tried to sign Folarin Balogun, but negotiations with Monaco were unsuccessful, while Manchester United refused to loan Joshua Zirkzee. Brennan Johnson, who arrived from Crystal Palace in an exchange with Dwight McNeil, can help out in the center, but the club would like to add a specialist in the position to its workforce.
Vardy has the advantage of being able to be recruited despite the closure of the market since he is free from any contract. Eager to return to the UK with his family after his time in Serie A, the former England international has also been linked with Wrexham, whose advances he is said to have rebuffed, as well as São Paulo. A true legend of Leicester, whom he joined in 2012 from Fleetwood, Vardy scored 200 goals in 500 appearances with the Foxes and notably won the Premier League in 2016, as well as the Golden Boot in 2020. Everton could now offer him a new adventure in the Premier League after a transfer window which also saw Iliman Ndiaye leave for Manchester City and Jack Grealish join the Toffees.
