6 goals in 7 games... Hirving Lozano shows again he is a must-buy for Everton

Everton must continue to track Hirving Lozano.

It is a bit of a surprise that despite his exciting World Cup, PSV managed to hold onto Hirving Lozano in the summer.

The Mexico international was linked before the tournament with Everton, and his performances saw his value inflate and links to Europe’s top clubs heighten.

One report in The Star even claimed he was worth £60 million.

Perhaps PSV’s demands put clubs off, but Lozano’s form suggests he is worth a big investment.

Lozano was named by the Liverpool Echo as a target for the Toffees back in May.

His form this year has been fantastic to start the season.

Lozano grabbed a brace in PSV’s 7-0 away win over ADO Den Haag on Saturday.

He now has six goals to start the season in seven games and is well on the way to eclipsing last season’s tally of 17.

Everton may have a few defensive problems to resolve, but they can’t go wrong investing in an attacker of Lozano’s clear quality.

With Lozano and Richarlison in the same attack, Everton would give opposition defences real headaches, and relieve pressure on their own backline in the process.

There will continue to be competition for Lozano’s signature if he keeps up his form, so Everton must be early movers in January to try to get a deal done.
