Everton are a big club - Jean-Philippe Gbamin

Jean-Philippe Gbamin has revealed he could not reject Everton, being a ‘big club’, after they showed their interest in signing him.

The 23-year-old Ivory Coast international completed a £25 million move to the Goodison Park outfit from German Bundesliga side Mainz last week.

The combative midfielder has been recruited to fill the gap of Senegal international Idrissa Gueye, who joined French Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain.
