Everton were bled dry by Allardyce flop who pocketed £11m in wage
He proved himself to be a huge waste of money.
Everton have found goals hard to come by in the Premier League so far this campaign, with forwards Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Beto scoring five and three goals respectively.
The Toffees have only managed to score 32 times in the league in 2023/24 – a record bettered by every other side in the division other than Sheffield United who occupy 20th place.
Should they maintain their Premier League status ahead of next season, the club need to invest in a new focal point to allow the Toffees to pull further clear of any relegation threat.
However, the club are accustomed to signing players with impressive goalscoring records elsewhere before arriving at Goodison Park and failing to live up to expectations.
One player, in particular, joined the club in a big-money deal, just to leave a few years later on a free transfer after bleeding the club dry with his hefty wages.
Cenk Tosun’s stats for Everton
Cenk Tosun arrived under the tenure of Sam Allardyce, signing for the Toffees in January 2018 from Besiktas in a £27m deal.
At the time, it looked as though Everton had signed a top-quality striker – given his phenomenal goal return in Turkey, scoring 20 goals from 33 appearances in his final full campaign for the Süper Lig outfit.
