Everton boss David Moyes is aiming for at least three new signings.
The Liverpool Echo says with Steven Pienaar following Yakubu through the Goodison exit, Moyes will now look to reinvest the money into reinforcements with a striker, right-sided midfielder and centre-back high on his list of priorities before the transfer window shuts in less than a fortnight.
And reports in Belgium have again linked Everton with an interest in Anderlecht winger Jonathan Legear.
Moyes has watched the highly-rated 23-year-old - who has also caught the eye of Newcastle United - on several occasions but any move would depend on Anderlecht not slapping an exorbitant price tag on the player.
