These 2 midfielders would be perfect for Everton in January

Yacine Brahimi

Everton attempted to sign FC Porto midfielder Yacine Brahimi in the summer, but no deal materialised for the Algerian international.

Instead, he has shown the Toffees what they missed out on by scoring four goals and laying on two assists in 24 games for the Portuguese giants, helping them to second place in the Primeira Liga as well as the last 16 of the Champions League.

Brahimi has been in fine form, most notably in recent times, as he netted three goals in his last four games for the club before going on African Cup of Nations duty with Algeria.

Despite being unavailable for a month, Brahimi would add much-needed attacking prowess to Everton’s midfield, with the likes of Kevin Mirallas, Aaron Lennon, and Ross Barkley all inconsistent to be relied upon.

Recent reports suggest that the Toffees could face a battle with Nice for the 26-year-old, but he’s a player that would certainly benefit them going forward.
