Everton have announced the season-long loan signing of Napoli’s Jesper Lindstrom.
The Denmark midfielder, who joined the Serie A side last summer, will spend a year at Goodison Park with an option for a permanent move.
The 24-year-old has 16 international caps and won the Europa League with Eintracht Frankfurt in 2023.
Lindstrom is Sean Dyche’s fourth summer signing, joining Tim Iroegbunam, Iliman Ndiaye, and Jack Harrison at Everton.
“It’s amazing to represent Everton,” he told evertontv. “This is a big club with a big history, a good stadium, and very good facilities. I’m very happy to be here and feel like this is a good fit.”
