Amadou Onana makes 'crazy' Everton claim after 'getting chills' ahead of Goodison debut

Everton summer signing Amadou Onana "gets chills" at the thought of stepping out at Goodison Park for his home debut.

The 21-year-old had an instant impact in his first minutes for the club at Aston Villa - creating the goal that brought the Blues back into the game. After that first taste of the Premier League he is excited for his first foray in front of his own fans, the feeling boosted by the reception he received when he was spotted in the stands during the game against Chelsea.

Reflecting on that experience, he said: "That reaction in the stands was crazy. It’s an incredible feeling to be made so welcome and I was very grateful. The thought of playing there gets me really fired up. I’m ready to go."
