Frank Lampard has remained tight-lipped on speculation that he is closing in on a deal for Neal Maupay but admitted that Everton do need more attacking options.
Lampard has consistently refused to speak on individual transfer targets from other clubs throughout this window and maintained this stance when quizzed about the 26-year-old French striker who has been given permission to discuss a move away from Brighton & Hove Albion after entering the final year on his contract.
When asked what he could say about a potential deal for Maupay, Lampard said: “Nothing, I’m not going to go in on all potential deals.”
