Everton He had a quiet transfer window in January, bringing only one signature, Carlos Alcarazza. Maybe it’s a little surprise that Toffees were no longer strengthened, given their insecure position of the league. They sit 16. In the Premier LeagueAt this point seven points from relegation.
The reports circulated that they had late tried to try to sign the wing player Tom Fellows of West Bromwich Albion. However, Reports with Teamtalks propose They have never filed an offer for England under the age of 21.
So, as it happened, Alcarazza became the only player who brought Merseysiders during January. Will surely add strength and depth David Moyes’ detachment.
Why did Everton sign Alcarazz
Everton has brought its new versatile attack option in on borrowing from the Brazilian side of Flamengo by the end of the season. There is a confusion about the shopping clause at the end of the loan, and Toffees claim that it is an option, while Flamengo says it is mandatory.
Nonetheless, in the short term, the Argentine will provide a lot of versatility and quality to the Moyes detachment. In addition, his contribution to Brazil is a little insidious. According to the FotmobHe has five contributions from a goal in 19 games for Flamengo.
The 22-year-old previously played in a top flight, and 48 games were presented for the saints. At that time, the Argentine managed to score eight goals and register five assists, which included the Arsenal hit in the Premier League.
The word versatility is the one that comes to mind when thinking about the ex -man Saints. He is able to play on a multitude of positions, including wide on the left, as an advanced number eight or as number ten.
Moyes could see him decide to launch him as number ten, or at least as the most advanced Toffees midfielder. This could mean that he dropped a player from the initial XI, who has been a key player in Merseysiders in recent years.
The Everton star alcarazza could replace
The player is here Abdoulaye Doucoure. For the last five years, playing at Goodison Park, he has had several unforgettable moments. According to FotmobThe midfielder played 155 games for the club and has 19 goals and 13 assists in that time.
His latest strike, in a 4-0 victory over Leicester City, was a record break for Everton player. He scored after 10.18 seconds, the fourth fastest in the Premier League, and the fastest in Everton history.
Still, he mostly fought for form in the 2024/25 campaign. Doucoure played 23 times for the club in all competitions, but only one goal in the top flight and once in Carabao Cup managed to. Considering that his role was a counter about a dozen, his contributions for the goal probably left a little desired.
Indeed, the statistics from Doucoure’s campaign this season may be a little insidious. On average by match, he created a 1.01 chance and has a 1.81 touch in the opposition frame. In addition, his work outside the ball is impressive and includes 5.17 ball refund.

Once described as “great light” from a former manager Sean DycheThe midfielder was not at best this season. By signing Alcaraz, Moyes can decide to reject Doucoure on the side and release Argentina.
They will surely play similar roles, but there is a compromise for replacement. Although Alcarazza may add more quality to the ball, the Malan midfielder is great outside the property. This is certainly a dilemma for Moyes, but maybe the recess of their new accessory in the side would be a good experiment.
The Scottish boss has a big call for the weekend, but Alcarazza will surely encourage the beginning and could make his request for a permanent place in the team with a good performance.
