London, June 16 (IBNS): British football club Everton has signed Jordan Pickford from Sunderland.

The footballer has signed five-year deal with the Blues for a Club-record fee.

"The £25m fee for the 23-year-old could rise to £30m depending on team and individual performances – a British record and third highest fee in the world for any player in that position," Everton website read.

Speaking to evertonfc.com while on England Under-21 duty in Poland ahead of the European Championships, he said: “It’s great to sign for the Club. Last season was my first in the Premier League so to get this opportunity with Everton now, to be able to go forward with my career and show everyone what I can do with Everton is unbelievable."
