Conor Coady admits he is ‘over the moon’ after joining Everton.
Coady will spend the 2022/23 season at Goodison Park on loan from Wolves, where he was a fixture of their first-team setup for the previous seven years.
The England international, who will wear the no.30 shirt for the Blues, grew up on Merseyside and began his career with Liverpool before leaving in 2014.
He becomes Frank Lampard’s fourth signing of the summer, following Dwight McNeil, James Tarkowski and his former Wolves teammate Ruben Vinagre.
“It’s incredible to join Everton,” said Coady.
“As soon as I heard the interest, from the manager but also the football club itself, I really wanted to be part of it straight away. I’m over the moon to join.
“I’ve grown up around the city, I know the football club, how big this club is and what it means to the supporters.
“I’m someone who was desperate to come here, to play for this club. I’ve got family and friends who are massive Evertonians.
“I’m here to give absolutely everything I’ve got for this football club.
“It’s important I work as hard as I can to help my teammates, help the club move forward and make people proud.”
