Koeman's LaLiga duo to replace leaving stars

Everton have had a good season, and they will hope for European qualification. However, two key figures in the Everton squad are seeking to abandon the club in the Summer, in search of Champions League football.

Romelu Lukaku and Ross Barkley have been two major factors in Everton's success, managing 25 goals and 13 assists between them. Koeman has already come to terms with the reality that he will not be able to retain the pair, and has begun the task of looking for a suitable replacement.

Cedric Bakambu and Willian Jose, from Villarreal and Real Sociedad respectively, are the Dutch manager's chosen men. The pair have enjoyed success in LaLiga and, at 25 years of age, still have plenty of projection. Koeman has deemed that the pair are capable of filling the shoes of two of Everton's key figures in recent seasons.
