Everton boss Roberto Martinez intends to again work the loan market next season.
Last season the Spaniard engineered temporary deals for Gareth Barry, Romelu Lukaku and Gerard Deulofeu - all of which were big successes.
And Lacina Traore managed a goal on his only start before an unfortunate injury blow.
Martinez told evertontv: "The loan market will be important again. I have always felt loans are a real need in our squad, and we welcome that.
"You look back at the last experience we had with loans was very, very significant in what they brought into the squad."
