Everton have completed the £27million signing of striker Cenk Tosun after the Turkey international put pen to paper on a four-and-a-half year deal.
The 26-year-old, who joins the Toffees from Turkish club Besiktas, agreed personal terms with the Goodison Park outfit on Friday.
It comes after the two clubs spent several days thrashing out a deal for the player.
The signing marks the end of Everton's protracted search for a striker to replace Romelu Lukaku, who left the Blues for Manchester United in July.
Tosun, who has scored 14 goals for the Istanbul side this season in 26 appearances, will cost an initial £23m with potential add-ons.
“I’m really happy to be here and happy that everything is done. I’m really excited to play for Everton as soon as possible. Everton is a great club with a big history and a big culture and I’m looking forward to showing the fans the kind of player I am," he said.
“I bring my skills here and everybody is going to see what kind of player I am. I believe I can be a good player in the Premier League for Everton.
“The Premier League is a strong league, I know that, so my own physical strength will help me. Also I can use both feet the same and I believe I am a good striker in the box.
Sam Allardyce added: "“This lad looks like he is strong mentally and has a good pedigree,” said the Blues manager.
“He is Turkey’s No.1 striker and has scored goals in the Champions League and the Turkish League but he is desperate to play here in the Premier League.
“He is an all-rounder, with good movement. He is two-footed, perhaps not the biggest but he’s very efficient in the air and in the box he gets good space to get his head on the ball.
“We looked at the qualities of the player, his talent and goalscoring, and his resilience, too. I do not think you can look any more than we have done and, for the price, he is the best in Europe at the moment.”
