Gbamin makes debut in Everton’s stalemate with Crystal Palace

Jean-Philippe Gbamin made his maiden appearance for Everton in their 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace in Saturday’s opening Premier League game.

The 23-year-old midfielder joined the Toffees on a five-year deal from German Bundesliga side Mainz last week.

Gbamin was handed his first appearance by manager Marco Silva at Selhurst Park moments before the half-time break, replacing Andre Gomes who was forced off in the tie due to an injury.

45' Blues forced into a change just before the break - and it's a debut for Jean-Philippe Gbamin as Gomes is withdrawn.
