Michael Dawson has detailed the qualities of ‘brilliant’ Everton signing James Garner.
The Toffees announced their eighth summer signing with less than an hour until the transfer window shut for a fee believed to be £15million - less than £10million of which is upfront. The 21-year-old has signed a four-year deal with the club, keeping him at Goodison Park until 2026.
Deep-lying midfielder Garner spent one-and-a-half seasons on loan at Nottingham Forest in the Championship and had courted interest from a host of top-flight sides, with the Blues beating the likes of Leicester City and Forest to his signature. And a former teammate at the City Ground, Michael Dawson, has hailed the young talent’s quality in possession.
