  • Everton have done the most business of all their Premier League rivals since the season ended, spending over £85million on six players.

    Here, Press Association Sport looks at the players manager Ronald Koeman has brought in to reshape his squad.

    JORDAN PICKFORD (£25million + £5million in add-ons)

    The former Sunderland goalkeeper will be the club’s record signing should all the add-ons be activated and the England Under-21 international’s fee is a record for a British goalkeeper.

    Koeman will hope he solves the problem of inconsistent goalkeeping which dogged them last season.

    DAVY KLAASSEN (£23.6million)

    The midfielder, previously Ajax captain, has been brought in to provide more creativity in midfield and has been touted as the replacement for Ross Barkley – whose future at the club remains in doubt.

    The 24-year-old also brings goals with 55 in 181 matches for the Dutch side.

    MICHAEL KEANE (£25million + £5million in add-ons)

    Koeman needed to freshen up an ageing defence, and signed Keane from Burnley for a fee which matches Pickford’s as a potential club record.

    The 24-year-old has been identified as the long-term leader at the back with Ashley Williams and club captain Phil Jagielka turning 33 and 35 respectively in August.

    HENRY ONYEKURU (£7million)

    Signed from relatively unknown Belgian club Eupen, the Nigeria international was joint top scorer in the Belgian Super League last season.

    The 20-year-old striker will spend a year on loan at Anderlecht to continue his development.

    SANDRO RAMIREZ (£5.2million)

    The former Barcelona striker was signed from Malaga after Everton triggered his release clause.

    His involvement in the European Under-21 Championship with Spain means a later arrival for pre-season but 16 goals in LaLiga last season should add more firepower to a side who were heavily reliant on Romelu Lukaku.

    NATHANGELO MARKELO (undisclosed)

    The Holland Under-18 international defender, signed from FC Volendam, will start in the Premier League 2-winning under-23 squad.
