      Frank Lampard is understood to be eager to bolster his squad in January, but transfer funds will likely be limited due to the club’s financial issues.
      According to The Athletic, Everton are expected to look into the loan market over the next few weeks.
      Elanga is one of the club’s top targets with Lampard prioritising a new forward due to Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s persistent injury issues.
      The 20-year-old is understood to be frustrated with his current role at Old Trafford due to a lack of first team football, so a short-term loan will likely be his preferred move.

      Everton have also expressed an interest in signing Matheus Cunha, however the striker recently agreed to join Wolves on loan.
      Coventry City striker Viktor Gyokeres is another name on the transfer wishlist.
      The Swedish striker is considered a more accessible option for cash-strapped Everton with the January transfer window fast approaching.

      Holgate, 26, started three of Everton’s first four league games under Frank Lampard this season before sustaining a knee injury at Brentford.
      But the ex-England Under-21 international, who can also play right-back, could be available when the transfer window reopens in January due to Everton’s financial plight.
      Lampard has an overload of defenders in Conor Coady, James Tarkowski, Yerry Mina, Ben Godfrey and Michael Keane while Everton are also keen to trim their wage bill.
      Holgate played a major part under Lampard in the club’s successful fight against relegation from the top-flight last season.

      But his strong start to this campaign was cut short after picking up a knee problem in the 1-1 draw at Brentford.
      Coady and Tarkowski struck up a partnership in Holgate’s absence and his only appearance since then came in the 4-1 Carabao Cup loss at Bournemouth last month.
      But Holgate, who is under contract with Everton under June 2025, is fully fit for the festive period and ready to kick-start his career.
      Ahead of the Prem resumption on Boxing Day, Everton lie 17th in the table and just one point above the drop zone.

      Forest have money to spend and want to boost their survival battle.
      But Steve Cooper will explore other options first and Everton may have to settle for a fee around £15million at best.
      Forest signed a remarkable 22 players in the summer window after returning to the Premier League for the first time since 1999.

      “Every time we’ve had a tough moment, we’ve responded with a performance or result so that’s reassuring. Days like today help belief grow and we’ve got to build on that.” More
