DONNY VAN DE BEEK has joined Everton on loan until the end of the season.
The Dutchman has finally ended his Manchester United nightmare in a bid to revive his career at Goodison Park.
Van de Beek, 24, joined the Red Devils from Ajax in a £39million deal in 2020 - but has started just FOUR Premier League games since.
The midfielder will now link up with new Toffees boss Frank Lampard on Merseyside.
On his move, a thrilled Van de Beek revealed: “Now I can say I am an Everton player, I am really happy and can’t wait to help the team.
“I think it is a great club… there are really good players here and I came because I want to help them go up the table.
“I hope to bring my football qualities, my passing, and, of course, scoring goals.
"It is a big part of my game to score and give assists and I will try to do that again.
"And it is not only offensive, you have to defend as a midfielder and I can do that as well."
Van de Beek continued: “I had a really positive meeting with the new coach.
"We have the same ideas about football and he had a lot of influence on my decision.
“I played against him when I was at Ajax, and he was at Chelsea [as manager], so he knows me as a player. He thinks I have qualities that can help the team.
“I can learn a lot from him because he was a little bit in the same position – a midfield player who scored a lot of goals.
“He can help me a lot, so I think I’m in a good spot.
“I want to improve with Everton. There are always things that can be better and I work hard every day to do that."
Van de Beek went on: “I want to show my qualities, my strengths, to the people in England – but especially the fans from Everton.
"The most important thing is we win games and go up the table.
"We have good players in the team and the talent and ability to go up in the league. But, for that, we need to work hard and I want to be part of this.
“Everton is a big club, with big players, the history and amazing fans. The Club has everything to go up and be higher in the table.
“I played at Goodison twice last season without fans… it will be lovely to see the stadium full.
“It’s difficult I cannot play on Saturday but I will be there to see the game and focus on the next match.
“I’m fit. I train a lot for myself and I was training a lot with the team at United. I have a few days to train fully and I’m sure I’ll be there [ready for Newcastle].”
Van de Beek's arrival is the latest move in a busy January window for the Toffees.
The Goodison strugglers have brought in full-backs Vitaliy Mykolenko and Nathan Patterson from Dynamo Kyiv and Rangers respectively.
Anwar El Ghazi also arrived on loan from Aston Villa with Dele Alli also set for a move to Merseyside on a permanent deal.
The deal bringing the ex-England star to Goodison could cost Everton up to £40m in add-ons. (UK Sun)
