It's official: Harrison Armstrong has signed for Everton from Preston. The midfielder's move has been confirmed by both clubs, with personal terms and registration finalised. He will now link up with his new teammates ahead of the upcoming fixtures, having completed a medical and agreed on contract terms. Everton faced no rival bids for the player, enabling them to negotiate directly and wrap up the deal efficiently. Everton are only scoring 1.05 goals per game (20 in 19) this season, which suggests they need more creativity in the middle. Harrison Armstrong would be seen as the link to raise the tempo and feed the attack. Preston have also been linked with Cody Callum Pierre Drameh and Yang Hyun-jun while Everton are reportedly monitoring Jayden Bogle, Joshua Zirkzee and Kobbie Mainoo.
