      “They think he could be a striker that could help take them to the next level both in the league, and in Europe.”
      Calvert-Lewin has already missed nine games this season as he battles a knee injury.

      Moyes’ troops will welcome fellow strugglers Everton to the London Stadium on Saturday in a good old-fashioned relegation six-pointer.
      Defeat could bring about the end of his second reign as Hammers chief, although, ironically, it may pave the way for him to return to Goodison Park.
      That’s according to The Telegraph, who claim the West Ham brass are already weighing up potential replacements for the former Manchester United manager.
      Victory over the Hammers would ease the mounting pressure on Toffees’ boss Frank Lampard.

      Although it could prove to be a double-edged sword as the availability of club legend Moyes could tempt the Everton hierarchy to give him the boot.
      It’s been claimed the potential axing of Moyes would make Lampard’s position as Toffees boss “vulnerable.”
      Lampard is indeed in a “vulnerable” position following a run of just one win in the club’s last 11 Premier League matches.
      But he was recently given a public vote of confidence by Toffees owner Farhad Moshiri.

      The British-Iranian businessman said: “I have faith in the work being done not only by our manager, but our director of football [Kevin Thelwell] and our board of directors.
      “That faith is based on my knowledge of the depth and quality of work being done both at Finch Farm [Everton’s training complex] and the Royal Liver Building [Everton’s administrative HQ) – and of the plan that is in place.
      “I am confident that we have skilled, experienced and focused professionals at all levels of the club.
      “We are all agreed that our current league position must and will improve.”
      He added: “In almost seven years since my arrival at the club, I have significantly increased my investment and our new stadium has become reality.
      “We regularly review our performance and initiate change where we feel that the club falls short of standard.
      “This has meant that we have seen turnover in managers, directors of football and several board members, but always as we have striven to achieve success.
      “Whilst, in virtually every instance, change has been supported and encouraged by fans, stability must be the key to progression.” More

      Supporters set off fireworks outside of the visitors’ hotel during the early hours of Saturday morning while they were still sleeping, hoping Nathan Jones’ men wouldn’t be fresh enough.
      But it didn’t have the desired effect as Southampton went on to win 2-1 thanks to a brace by James Ward-Prowse that cancelled out Amadou Onana’s opener.
      Saints’ social media team decided to add some more salt to Everton’s wounds with a brutal review for their hotel on Tripadvisor.
      The St Mary’s outfit said they had the “best night’s sleep ever” and praised the triple glazing that they claimed was so good they wouldn’t even be able to hear rockets.

      Southampton’s review was titled: “Great trip and best night’s sleep ever!”
      The cheeky feedback then read: “We can’t say enough positive things about the Innside By Melia Liverpool!
      “Had an important business trip to attend in the city and they were perfect hosts.
      “The hotel ensured we were looked after and well-rested for our meeting, which was an extremely productive one.

      “Rooms were brilliant, beds were incredibly comfy, and the blackout blinds and triple glazing… oh wow!
      “You could literally have a firework display going on outside your window and you’d never know it. Best night’s sleep we’ve ever had!
      “In fact, the only rocket we noticed all weekend was the one James Ward-Prowse sent into the net in the 78th minute at Goodison. We’ll definitely be returning again.”
      This is not the first time Southampton have a bit of fan with Tripadvisor as they did the same thing in 2018.
      Saints left a one star review for the Marriott Hotel in Swansea after their booking was bizarrely cancelled.
      They were notified 24 hours before that the 40 rooms they reserved for the night were not available to big groups, despite being open to other guests.
      Instead the South Coast club, who were fuming, had to stay at the plush Vale of Glamorgan Hotel outside Cardiff, which is where the Wales football and rugby teams werehoused during international breaks. More

      Since the arrival of Erik Ten Haag however, the Swede has fallen back down the pecking order.
      With the emergence of teammate Alejandro Garnacho, Elanga has only managed to find his way into the starting 11 just five times this season.

      They are now reportedly one of a number of teams in for Danjuma, according to the Mail.
