Teenage midfielder Imam Jagne has returned to Sweden after his Everton contract was terminated by mutual consent.
The talented teenager signed for the Blues from BK Hacken in October 2020, impressing then Under-23s manager David Unsworth with his athleticism and pressing. He had penned a deal set to keep him on Merseyside until the end of this season but both parties were able to agree on its early conclusion. The 19-year-old wanted to leave to pursue first team football.
Speaking about the move, Jagne added he simply "wanted to come home, play and just enjoy football again". He said Everton were sensitive to his position, explaining: "They were really kind and saw it from my perspective, which was that I wanted to develop and play senior football. Then they agreed. They were very supportive."
