Everton signed Ireland goalkeeper Mark Travers from Bournemouth in a deal worth a reported £4 million ($5.3 million) on Tuesday.

Travers agreed a four-year contract with the Premier League club, who will open their new stadium at the start of the forthcoming season.

The 26-year-old said: "I'm extremely proud and excited to be an Everton player. Coming in, you can feel how big this club is and the history that comes with it.

"You really feel that with the fanbase, the new stadium now as well and the direction the club is going in.

"It's a really exciting time to be part of this massive football club and I just can't wait to get going."

Travers, who made 82 appearances for Bournemouth during his nine years with the club, will compete with England keeper Jordan Pickford for the starting place in David Moyes' team.
