Andy Johnson

Everton have completed the signing of Andrew Johnson for £8.6 million.

The England striker is currently training with the national squad ahead of tonight's game against Hungary.

Johnson put pen to paper today at Manchester’s Lowry Hotel where the England squad are staying.

"I am looking forward to giving 110 per cent in every game I play in and hopefully I can score goals for Everton," he said.

The 25-year-old will be given special permission to leave the England training camp later this week to attend a press conference to announce his signing.

Johnson will spearhead Everton's attack next season alongside friend James Beattie.

Everyone at the Holmesdale Online wishes AJ all the best for the future. Thanks for the memories AJ.
