Everton are plotting to make a loan move for Chelsea star Liam Delap this summer. <\/p>\n
Manager David Moyes has transformed the Merseyside club after taking over from Sean Dyche in January. <\/p>\n
The Toffees are set to finish in the top half of the Premier League table once again, but they will be slightly disappointed with the recent run of results. <\/p>\n
Last weekend\u2019s 2-2 draw at Crystal Palace means they are winless in their last five league matches, leaving them with a slim chance of qualifying for Europe next season. <\/p>\n
However, the club\u2019s hierarchy are impressed with Moyes\u2019 work and they are set to back him in the upcoming transfer market. <\/p>\n
According to the Sun, Everton have set their sights on Delap.\u00a0They will reportedly ask the Blues to loan the English striker with an option to buy. <\/p>\n
Delap has endured a difficult start to life at Stamford Bridge after joining last summer for \u00a330 million. <\/p>\n
The 23-year-old picked up an injury in August that kept him out of action for two months.\u00a0He has started only 11 times in the Premier League this season. <\/p>\n
Chelsea already have plenty of attacking options, with Joao Pedro and Marc Guiu on their books. <\/p>\n
Emmanuel Emegha will arrive from Strasbourg, and Nicolas Jackson is set to return after his loan at Bayern Munich ends. <\/p>\n
Chelsea could be open to selling Delap in the summer transfer window, but it is unclear if they will allow him to leave on loan. <\/p>\n
