Dominic Calvert-LewinHis late miss extended his scoreless run to 16 Premier League matches, and it has become very clear – if it is not already the case – that the 27-year-old must be replaced this month, especially as his contract expires this summer.

Armando Broja's ankle injury is a tough blow for a player looking for relief, but financially, recalling the loan star to Chelsea would likely make room for Everton to step up.

While a new striker is in demand, the Toffees' new owners, The Friedkin Group, are looking for other positions as well.

According to FBrefNeama ranks among the top 17% of his peers in Ligue 1 this season in terms of advanced carries and tackles per 90, highlighting a strong and diverse skillset that could be ideal for Moyes' system.

With a new centre-forward in the mix too, Everton could be on the cusp of an exciting new attacking force to begin a new chapter in their promotion. Moyes would love to add in January, after all, welcoming Jarrod Bowen to the London Stadium as his first point of call in January 2020, a month after his appointment.

More relevant in this case, though, Neema could prove to be the next version of Lingard for the Scottish tactician, with the former Three Lions star enjoying the most prolific spell of his career as a West Ham player.
