Fabian Delph has left Manchester City for Everton.
Fabian Delph has quit Manchester City to join Everton.
Everton announced the transfer on their official website last night.
Delph says his number one goal is to win trophies at Everton and that is why he has joined the club.
He said: “I’m at an age now where I am probably one of the most experienced players, so hopefully I can bring that and try to help my teammates here to do better. Ultimately, the goal is to win something.
“I’ve not come here just to be here – I’ve come here with ambitions to win things.”
Everton’s last major trophy was the 1995 FA Cup.
Rivals Liverpool meanwhile are toasting their sixth Champions League win and are on a high.
Reds fans took amusement from Delph’s lofty goal, although the midfielder is clearly full of confidence after helping Manchester City pip Liverpool to the Premier League title last season.
Delph is joining the Toffees to play more regularly, but he can’t really be blamed for arriving at the club with ambition. He has developed a winner’s mentality at City, and that will help his new side.
Here is a look at how Liverpool fans reacted to Delph’s comments…
