Everton have completed the signing of James Rodriguez from Real Madrid in a deal reportedly worth £22m.

The Colombian has signed a two-year contract with an option for a third.

Rodriguez reunites with Carlo Ancelotti, who signed him as Real manager in 2014.

“I am really, really happy to be at this great club, a club with so much history, and here with a manager who knows me really well," the 29-year-old told Everton's website.

“I'm looking forward to achieving great things here – and winning things, which is what everyone's aim is.

“I've come here to try to improve, to get better. I've also come here to help the team to win, to play good football – entertaining football.

“I'm convinced, with Carlo and his technical staff, we can achieve big things and one of the big reasons [I signed] was the presence of Carlo Ancelotti.

“I have enjoyed some great times with him previously at two different clubs. That was a massive reason to come here."
