Everton have announced the signing of Sandro Ramirez from Malaga, and the fans could not be happier.

The Merseyside outfit have been linked to the 21-year-old for some time, but doubt began to creep in after days continued to tick by without an official announcement.

Last month, it was reported by Marca that Real Madrid were muscling in on the transfer, but it seems as though that rumour did not have much foundation as he has sealed a move to Everton.

The club have announced on their official website that Ramirez has penned a four-year contract until the end of June 2021.

Everton are said to have triggered a release clause thought to be worth £5.3m, which takes the club spending to well in excess of £50m.

The Toffees have been one of the busiest Premier League clubs in the transfer window so far, bringing in goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, midfielder Davy Klaassen, young forward Henry Onyekuru and now Ramirez.

As expected, the fans flooded the club's Twitter page with messages of excitement.
