Everton boss Marco Silva expects more departures this month.

Out-of-favour striker Oumar Niasse is edging closer to a loan move to Cardiff, which would leave the Toffees boss with Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Cenk Tosun and winger-turned-forward Richarlison as his options up front.

The trio have just 17 goals between them - of which Richarlison has scored nine - but there will be no reinforcements coming in January.

“It is not my job to change my mind," said Silva. “When you asked me the last few weeks the possible players coming or not in the market, I told you that you just can't sign someone if someone leaves the club or we sell someone.

“We don't have the financial conditions to go in the market, (that) is the feedback I have at the moment. I have to find different solutions."
