Everton line up Tomas Soucek transfer raid as David Moyes looks to reunite with his go-to West Ham star
EVERTON boss David Moyes is aiming to sign his West Ham old boy Tomas Soucek.
The versatile Soucek, 30, signed a new deal with the Hammers until 2027 in January last year.
But the Toffees chief is a big fan since their time together at the Irons and hopes his money men will give the go-ahead.
Moyes wants a major say on Everton’s signings, and while he plans to spend big on some, there is also room for a bargain capture or two.
Soucek joined West Ham in 2019 from Slavia Prague.
He is a big fan favourite in East London and has 8 goals in 31 Prem games from midfield this season.
Soucek has played at least 32 league games out of a possible 38 in every season since making his debut for the Hammers.
Across all outfield players in the division, only Everton’s James Tarkowski and Man Utd’s Bruno Fernandes have started more games in the same period.
Moyes is plotting a revolution at the Toffees as they move into their plush new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock.
The Scot has brought back old scouting sidekick Mick Doherty from Italian side Atalanta to be a major talent spotter.

SunSport revealed earlier this month that Moyes is willing to battle Man Utd and Chelsea for Liam Delap.
The Everton boss is desperate for fresh attackers.
Liverpool’s teenage winger Ben Doak is also on the wishlist, with Moyes also hoping to tempt Delap to Merseyside.
The Toffees are willing to be patient and wait for the England Under-21 international, who has a £30million relegation release clause.
Delap has hit 12 Prem goals since joining Ipswich from Manchester City last summer.
