„Everton“ officially acquired „Brighton“ forward Neal Maupay. It is reported that the „Toffees“ paid 15 million pounds sterling for the 26-year-old Frenchman. However, Maupay will not be able to debut in today's match against „Brentford“ as he was not registered on time. N. Maupay scored 26 goals and made 7 assists in the „Premier“ league while representing the „Seagulls“ over three seasons. However, his finishing sometimes lacked consistency. Nevertheless, „Everton“ needed a new forward after Dominic Calvert-Lewin's injury. Solomon Rondon, however, has not lived up to expectations in the attack. N. Maupay showed promise at a young age playing for „Nice“ and „Saint Etienne“ before having a fantastic season with „Brentford“ in the „Championship“, scoring 25 goals and providing 8 assists in 43 matches. "I knew straight away I wanted to play for Everton."”▶️ Now playing: @nealmaupay18's first interview ⤵️
