Tyler Dibling has become Everton’s eighth signing of the summer.
The teenage winger penned a four-year contract at Hill Dickinson Stadum on Monday after arriving on an initial £35 million transfer from Southampton.
Dibling joins David Moyes’ side with a burgeoning reputation despite his former club’s Premier League relegation at the end of the previous campaign.
He ranked in the top flight’s leading 20 players for attempted take-ons with 110 while averaged 2.15 successful dribbles per 90 minutes last term.
The 19-year-old received a sample of what to expect from the Blues’ fans when he played for the Saints in Goodison Park’s final-ever game in May.
“I’m buzzing to sign,” said Dibling.
“I felt the club already, even before I was in the building, just from social media and from people telling me about the club.
“I’ve never been so excited to play football and I’m just ready to get going. I think it’s the perfect match because of where the club is right now.
“Obviously with the new stadium, the fans here are unreal and it has a family feel to it. I think it was the perfect fit and was a no-brainer to join.
“I think I’ve come to Everton at the perfect time and hopefully I can be here for many years.
He added: “I think the manager is perfect for me.
“Obviously he’s helped so many players before who were in my position. I’ve spoken to him and I know he’s going to be good for me.
“There are so many players here to learn from, real quality players like Jack Grealish and Iliman Ndiaye.
“I’d say the wow factor in my game is my dribbling. That’s what I’m best at and that’s what I want to excite the fans, and I hope I’ll get to do a lot of it.
“My aim for this season is just to play as many games as I can and to help the team as much as I can with goals and assists.
“As a team, hopefully we can have a good season and see where it goes.”
