Gerard Deulofeu joins Everton in £4.3-million move from Barcelona
London - Everton have signed Barcelona's Gerard Deulofeu on a three-year deal for six million euros (£4.3 million), the Premier League club announced Thursday.
The 21-year-old right winger had a loan spell at Goodison Park during the 2013/14 season but has now made a full-time move to the Merseyside club from the reigning European champions.
A statement on Everton's website said they had "agreed a fee of six million euros with European champions Barcelona," adding that Deulofeu would officially become an Everton player on July 1.
"Gerard needs no introduction to anyone here at Everton. We are all well aware of his incredible footballing talent," said Everton manager Roberto Martinez.
The Spanish boss added: "Gerard considers Everton as home and we are getting an even more mature player now than he was a couple of seasons ago."
