Crystal Palace Announce Arrival of James McCarthy in £8m Transfer From Everton

Crystal Palace have confirmed the arrival of Everton midfielder James McCarthy in an £8m deal, becoming the club's fifth signing of the summer.

Gary Cahill, Stephen Henderson and Victor Camarasa are the other new faces at Selhurst Park, while Jordan Ayew's loan move from Swansea has been made permanent.

But the Eagles have now announced the arrival of McCarthy, albeit not revealing how long the 28-year-old has signed on for.

McCarthy had just one year left on his contract at Goodison Park and was looking for first-team football ahead of 2019/20, having made just one league appearances last season after returning from a serious injury.
