He finally signed on the dotted line and Everton got their man.

Ronald Koeman signed a deal with the Toffees last week and has been touted as the man to turn their fortunes around after a stuttering season under Roberto Martinez last time out.

And one of the Dutchman's priorities before he delves into the transfer market will be to sort out his existing squad to see who will make the grade as he stamps his own personality on a struggling squad.

So with that in mind, here's FIVE players who will benefit from Ronald Koeman's arrival...

Arguably one of the stars under Roberto Martinez, Barkley really dipped in form last season.

Whilst he bagged a career-high goal tally of 12 over the campaign, his potential seemed to slow up in what was an all-round poor season for the Toffees.

If he's to rediscover his best form he needs to work hard to impress the new boss, and he's a man that will be looking to show his intent from the get-go.

Arouna Kone

Kone

Kone is a player who needs stability, consistent playing time and an injury-free run of games, and he'll hope Koeman will be able to give him that.

He struggled with long-term injury when he began his Everton career back in 2013 but he sprung back and played well when given the chance last season, making over 30 appearances for the first time since he joined the club from Wigan Athletic.

He could be a hidden gem that just needs a chance.

Gerard Deulofeu

Another man who lost a bit of form last season, Gerard Deulofeu will be looking to bounce back under new manager Ronald Koeman.

We know the Dutchman likes to play with pacey, attacking wingers, as we saw at Southampton, and that could be the Spaniard's cue to show his worth once again.

He's frighteningly quick and he could definitely benefit from Koeman's arrival.

Oumar Niasse

Oumar Niasse brought a wealth of expectation to Goodison when he joined the club in January from Lokomotiv Moscow.

The £13million man failed to live up to the hype and struggled with injury for the entirety of his first six months with the club.

But with a new manager in the hot seat, it could be Niasse's season to shine. He's known for his pace and power and he bagged 13 goals in his final season at Locomotiv before signing for Everton.

Romelu Lukaku

It's going to be a big season ahead for Romelu Lukaku and it's not yet certain where he will be playing his football next season.

He made it extremely clear that he wanted to move on when Roberto Martinez was still at the club but with Koeman now taking the reigns, could the Belgian make a U-turn and stay with the club?

He's been a huge player for the Toffees for a number of years and there is little doubt Koeman will want to hang onto the former Chelsea striker.
