I also think if we sign Lukaku we might only be left with 5-6M left to spend, with the rest of the signings being loans and free agents.

Think it could be very realistic to bring this group of players next season:
Lukaku (20M +/-)
Barry (free)
Carles Gil (6M+/-)
Colback/Rodwell (free/loan)
Deulofeu (loan)

along with some of our youngster breaking throuhgh like Browning, Duffy and McAleny. We could have great cover all over the team with plenty of talented and hardworking players who can play multiple positions.

GK: Howard, Robles
DEF: Coleman, Stones, Browning, Jags, Distin, Alcaraz, Duffy, Baines, Oviedo
CM: Barry, McCarthy, Gibson, Colback/Rodwell
Wings/AM: Mirallas, Pienaar, McGeady, Deulofeu, Barkley, Naismith, Osman, Gil
ST: Lukaku, Kone, McAleny

we can't go into next season with mcalney as our 3rd choice striker - he's never played.

personally, we'll need ideally a more experienced centre back who can also play RB, Micah richards would be perfect if it weren't for his injury, but who knows, could possibly be worth the game. we'll sign barry so will need another box-to-box like mccarthy or a more attacking centre mid so we can accomodate barkley further back. we will need another winger and then two strikers like batshuayi and remy.

if we got something like:
richards,
ben arfa,
batshuayi,
remy
and that box to box, we'd be boss.

I think we are sorted for centre back lad, Stones, Distin, Jagielka and Alcarez are more than good enough. Martinez has also raved about Ty Browning so i can't see him adding somebody else. A left sided centre half maybe like Bruno Martins Indi is a possibility i suppose, a right back might be needed as cover for Coleman. I like the look of Sam Byron at Leeds a few seasons back but don't know how he is getting on now.

A holding midfielder will be needed if Barry doesn't join, even if he does i can see somebody else joining. I think the majority of our cash will be spent on attacking players.

Id take
Lukaku (20m) no more than that
Id love Dusun Tadic 10m
Traore must surely be staying around, no other explanation for keeping him here injured.

Martinez surely will have plenty of offers from other clubs wanting young lads to get schooled in the Everton way, so id expect a couple of ace loan signings.
 
if alcaraz was guaranteed to be fit, i'm happy with those 4 cb's for next season. but it is a bit like having 3 cb's with him, and with hibbo probably not getting a new contract, we'll have no backup RB. obviously martinez seems to rate browning, if he rates him enough to have him as 1st choice backup next season, then fair enough.

i just think richards on a free would give us a few more options and give browning a bit more playing time in a lower league - as opposed to youth footy.
 
Manny Fernandes would potentially do so well in a side managed by Roberto Martinez. Read somewhere he's probably going back to Portugal with FC Porto though.

If that happened it would open up bringing Defour in from Porto mate, still think he would be a great addition to the squad, probably pick him up for 3-5m too
 

I have some vietnamese friends who watches a lot of J- and K-league, and all of them keep raving about a guy called Kim Shin Wook, one of them, a fellow Evertonian, likens him to a Big Dunc' type of player (i know, almost sacrilegious to say). Haven't seen anything but youtube clips of him, but they say he is quite the player. Apparently his contract runs out in 8 months aswell so he could come cheap.

6'5", good with the head, clinical finisher with a quite good scoring average the last couple of years, taking into consideration it's the Korean league.

Younes Belhanda recently acknowledged he made a mistake moving to the Ukraine from France and he wants out. He mentioned the Premier League, specifically Arsenal (standard for a French speaker), as his preferred destination.

Also, Dynamo Kyiv haven't paid Montpelier his full transfer fee so the latter have notified UEFA and the transfer could be reversed. Montpelier have said if that happens there is no chance he will stay with them, they will sell him.

He is the sort of midfielder we need alongside the main target of a centre forward, in my opinion.
