Everton boss Marco Silva has insisted that the Toffees "are doing everything they can" to sign their transfer targets in this summer's window.
The Merseyside outfit, who opened their pre-season with an incredible 22-0 win over Austrian minnows ATV Irdning on Saturday, are yet to make a signing this summer.
Silva, however, is confident that new players will arrive before the transfer window slams shut on August 9.
"We have to do it," Silva told the Liverpool Echo. "We have our targets and we have already decided the positions we want to improve in our squad. We believe in all of our players but, for sure, we will do that and we have decided our targets.
"Our board, our chairman, our sporting director, they are doing everything they can to give me the players I ask them for."
Everton are next in pre-season action against Bury on Wednesday night.
