Everton captain Phil Neville is looking forward to what he believes will be the imminent arrival of new players at Goodison Park.

Neville is hoping manager David Moyes can attract players to the club who will help the Toffees launch a fresh assault on the Premier League's big four next season.

"With the European Championships, a lot of managers are out there looking at players," he told the club's official website.

"You will see in the next couple of weeks that once teams start going out of the championships you'll see the transfer market hotting up.

"I think a lot of teams have got money out there and a lot of teams want to do better this season than what they did last.

"It's up to us to keep improving and sign a few players to make sure we're still ahead of everybody else below us."

Meanwhile, Neville has set the target of a top-four finish and qualification for the Champions League next season.

"I think we owe it to everybody in the league to make sure the top four are consistently challenged because it would be a boring league if, every year, the same four teams finish in the top four," he continued.

"We did it three years ago and finished in a Champions League position in fourth place, so that's our aim this season."
