Everton sign midfielder Christian Nørgaard from Arsenal

Everton have completed the signing of Denmark international Christian Nørgaard from Arsenal, the clubs announced Wednesday.

The 32-year-old midfielder, who has signed a two-year deal with Everton, joined Arsenal from Brentford last summer but was limited to just seven league starts in their title-winning campaign.

“I felt I needed a change and to play a bigger football role,” Nørgaard, Everton’s fourth summer signing, said in a statement.

“When I spoke to David Moyes and others at the club involved in the transfer, I heard about the whole project and I was very intrigued. Coming here just makes that feeling even stronger.

“Also, my past experience of playing against Everton: the whole atmosphere, the fans, is something I really look forward to experience as an Everton player. It’s a big, big honour for me.”
