Marcel Brands wants to get Everton into a position where they only need to sign "two or three" players each summer.

The Blues made six signings in Brands' first season and added another seven new faces this year.

Around 20 names have left Everton this summer as the director of football went about trimming a bloated squad but Brands hopes high turnovers of players will become a thing of the past.

"My goal for the long term is to bring this club to a situation, like the top clubs, where you do two or three deals – two or three new players, maybe two or three players out [in each window] – that should give the Club more stability," Brands said.

"But the situation is like it is – and I am very happy with the players who came in.

"It was a very busy and exciting summer until the last day and I am happy with how we finished."

Marcel Brands has spoken exclusively to evertontv about the summer transfer window – and revealed the untold stories around every signing the Club made in advance of 2019/20.
