France international centre-back Eliaquim Mangala has completed a loan move to Everton from Manchester City for the remainder of the 2017/18 campaign, subject to clearance from the Premier League.
Mangala has featured nine times in the Premier League for Pep Guardiola’s trailblazers this season and was a key figure in City’s run to the 2015/16 Champions League semi-finals.
The 26-year-old said: “I am thrilled to have the opportunity to play for Everton and I cannot wait to pull on the royal blue jersey for the first time and give my all for the supporters.”
Mangala began his career with Standard Liege, making his debut as a 17-year-old in December 2008 and winning the Belgian title in his first campaign with the club.
