Godfrey joins Everton with the club top of the Premier League after a stunning start to the season, and the England U21 international is “ready and raring to go”.

“I am most looking forward to being part of a massive club,” Godfrey told evertontv.

“I have been on an upwards journey and now I have taken the step of making the move to Everton.

“It is great and it is an honour.

“You want to be part of a huge club like Everton. It is a club full of history. It has world-class players, some young players.

“I have senior players who will help me kick on to the next level. I am looking forward to working with them and, hopefully, having a successful time at this club.

“Success for me is trophies and winning games, I like to win.

“My next target is to break into Everton’s First Team and be a regular player. I am absolutely ready and raring to go.

“I have the international break but I will come back in two weeks and it is time for work.”
