The first signing of the new era at Everton under the Friedkin Group’s ownership has been announced, the women’s team confirming the signing of the France forward Kelly Gago for an undisclosed fee from the French club Nantes. The 25-year-old will join the WSL team from 1 January and is understood to be the first of several January signings that Brian Sørensen’s side are seeking to make after the takeover.

Gago told the club’s media channels: “My strengths are my speed, my physical presence, my power, and I can bring all of that to the team. I chose to come and play for Everton as I liked what Brian, the head coach, had to say and how his team plays.”.
Ange Postecoglou described the first semi-final of his Tottenham Hotspur career as “progress” for his injury-ravaged side, even if they were made to sweat by Manchester United in a hectic 4-3 victory. “It’s one thing me praising them,” he said. “But they need the reward of winning, and how it makes them feel, so they can go to the well again.”.
