“I hope, as I have done in my entire career, to contribute with my performances together with my teammates and to have great games, great performances and win big things.
“They are a club with a rich history in the Premier League, they have real ambition and then there is Professor Ancelotti. He’s done everything he can to bring me here.
“It’s the size of the club and the name of the manager, which means you don’t think twice about coming to Everton.”
Midfield is an area Ancelotti was eager to strengthen after a disappointing finish to last season with performances faded after a brilliant start after his arrival in December.
As a result, the club will also bring in another of Ancelotti’s former players, Real Madrid’s James Rodríguez and Watford’s Abdoulaye Doucoure.
