Everton have bolstered their attack with the signing of striker Neal Maupay from Premier League rivals Brighton for an undisclosed fee.
Everton boss Frank Lampard, who has been keen to strengthen his attacking options after losing Richarlison to Tottenham in the summer and an early-season injury to Dominic Calvert-Lewin, will be pleased the French player has joined the Toffees on a three-year deal, keeping him at the club until 2025.
The 26 year old Maupay scored 26 goals in 102 appearances for Brighton, having signed for the Seagulls for £16m from Brentford in 2019. He becomes Everton’s sixth signing of the summer following the arrivals of James Tarkowski, Ruben Vinagre, Dwight McNeil, Conor Coady and Amadou Onana.
