Lucas Neill finally signs for someone

Post by fb4e »

http://www.teamtalk.com/football/story/ ... 31,00.html
Everton have signed former West Ham defender Lucas Neill on a one-year contract and he could make his debut against Blackburn on Sunday.

The Australia international was a free agent after his contract at Upton Park expired last summer.

The 31-year-old passed a medical at the club's Finch Farm training ground on Thursday morning.

The Toffees take on Rovers - another of Neill's former clubs - at Goodison Park in the Premier League on Sunday.

Neill will increase Everton's defensive options after the recent injury to Phil Neville and the sale of Joleon Lescott, while Phil Jagielka remains on the sidelines.

The former Blackburn and Millwall player is the fourth permanent addition to David Moyes' squad since the end of last season following Diniyar Bilyaletdinov, Sylvain Distin and John Heitinga.

The deal was completed ahead of Everton's Europa League clash against AEK Athens on Thursday night.

Neill, who famously turned down a move to Merseyside rivals Liverpool two years ago, reportedly rejected the offer of a new one-year contract at West Ham in the summer to pursue other options

I saw the title and thought he really did sign for someone. Then I read on and saw that he signed only for Everton.
