Amadou Onana has admitted that former manager Frank Lampard played a key role in his decision to sign for Everton.
Onana signed for the Blues last summer from Ligue 1 club Lille in a deal that could be in excess of £30m including add-ons. The Belgium international is nearing the end of his first season at Goodison Park, after agreeing a five-year deal with Everton.
Lampard was Everton manager when Onana joined the club last August. The 21-year-old has gone on to make 24 appearances in his debut campaign on Merseyside, with one goal so far to his name.
