Overview

  • Tom King signed from Wolverhampton Wanderers on August 15 on a two-year contract running to June 2027 as Everton’s seventh arrival of the summer.
  • He will slot in behind Jordan Pickford and Mark Travers in the pecking order, reshaping the goalkeeping hierarchy at Finch Farm.
  • King’s arrival is expected to push academy graduate Harry Tyrer toward a loan or permanent move to secure regular playing time.
  • Youth centre-half Reuben Gokah arrived from Charlton on a long-term deal and goalkeeper Lachlan Allen is reported to be close to joining the academy setup.
  • Everton sold Nathan Broadhead to Wrexham in a potential £10 million deal and remains focused on bolstering areas such as right-back and striker before the season opener.
