Joao Silva: Everton move perfect for me

Joao Silva is excited about his move to Everton.

Silva, 20, was second top scorer in his country's second division last term, bagging 14 goals for Desportivo Das Aves in his first season as a pro.

Goodison officials sealed the three-year deal after flying to Portugal.

Silva, a Portuguese Under-20 international, said: "To play in the Premier League is a dream for any footballer because it is the best in the world.

"I believe England will be perfect for me - it will be an enormous move but I am ambitious and will stay positive.

"Everton are a great club with great players."
