Manchester United midfielder James Garner has joined Everton for an undisclosed fee.

The 21-year-old is the eighth summer signing at Goodison Park.

Garner spent last season at Nottingham Forest, helping them win promotion to the Premier League.

"I'm made-up to sign for Everton. It's a huge step in my career and I want to help the team get better while progressing as a player," Garner said.

"I think Everton is the perfect place to do that. I can't wait to get started.

"The manager [Frank Lampard] has got a real plan for the Club and for me. Working with him on a daily basis is major for me. Him and his staff can take me and the team to the next level. That's what I'm hoping for."

Garner joined the Red Devils at the age of eight and made a total of six first-team appearances.
