Everton FC new boy Yannick Bolasie unfazed by price tag

New Everton arrival Yannick Bolasie insists that he is unfazed by his £25 million price tag.

The forward’s move to the Blues earlier this week could see him become the club’s record signing if the add-ons agreed with Crystal Palace take his valuation up to £30 million.

But Bolasie insists that neither his current nor prospective fee have daunted him as he prepares to make the step up to Goodison Park.

He said: “When I think about the price tag, it really hasn’t hit me to be honest.

“When someone says ‘[you cost] 25 or 28 million’, whatever people are saying, I just try to think I’m here to play football.

“I don’t really put pressure on myself like that. I try to come here and enjoy the game.”
