Joleon Lescott told Fabian Delph Everton is a fantastic club with very intelligent fans

Everton have finally brought England international Fabian Delph to Goodison Park from Manchester City, 10 years after first attempting to sign him when he was at Leeds United.

The 29-year-old chose Aston Villa back then to boost his chances of playing for the Three Lions, and has since made a name for himself in the English top-flight as one of the best utility players.

Delph’s versatility came handy for manager Pep Guardiola as his side won back-to-back Premier League titles, and Toffees boss Marco Silva will hope the veteran midfielder can help his side to a top-seven finish next term.
