Premier League club Everton has signed Napoli midfielder Jesper Lindstrom on loan with an option to make the move permanent in 2025, both clubs said on Friday.
While the financial details of the deal were not disclosed by either club, Italian media reported that Everton would pay Napoli around three million euros ($3.26 million) in a loan fee. It has also agreed to a 22.5 million euro buy option for the 24-year-old.
The Denmark international joined Napoli from Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt in 2023 and has made 29 appearances for the Italian club.
