Everton have confirmed the signing of Chelsea defender Kurt Zouma on a season-long loan deal.
The Toffees endured a hectic final 24 hours of the transfer window as the additions of Yerry Mina, Andre Gomes and Bernard were all announced by the Merseyside outfit.
Everton also started the process of trying to bring in Zouma from Chelsea on a temporary basis, but the club were given time to complete the transfer after 5pm on Thursday.
However, it has now been revealed that the France international will spend the next campaign on loan with Marco Silva's squad.
Zouma is unlikely to be handed a starting role when Everton begin the new Premier League campaign at Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday evening.
