Everton is interested in a move for Manchester United attacker Anthony Elanga as he struggles for regular game time this season under Erik Ten Hag.
He had broken into the United team under its previous manager and played almost every game under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, with fans becoming used to seeing him.
However, when Ten Hag became the club’s manager, that all changed, and the youngster now struggles to get on the field for the Red Devils, which has made it hard for him to stay happy.
Matchplug understands Everton is now looking to add him to their squad, and the Toffees reportedly want to sign him on loan in January so that he can contribute to their game in the second half of the season.
A move for him might not be stopped by Ten Hag because he knows the winger needs game time to continue developing well and Everton would be a good place for him.
Frank Lampard is under pressure to deliver and he will hope Elanga’s arrival can help his misfiring team get better in the second half of the season.
