Ademola Lookman admits his move to Everton is a "dream" come true.

The 19-year-old former Charlton Athletic winger, who has spoken of his excitement at the prospect of working under Ronald Koeman, became the Blues' first signing of the January transfer window on Thursday.

Lookman was playing for London amateur side Waterloo FC just three years ago.

“I still feel like I'm dreaming," he explained to evertonfc.com. “It's amazing to think only three years ago I was playing on uneven pitches in parks.

“Everton is a huge club. I watched lots of games growing up and the atmosphere at Goodison Park was something that always caught my eye.

“I know about the great history Everton has - and, of course, the big rivalry that exists with Liverpool.

“I can't wait to get started here. I want to establish myself in the team, but I also want achieve things and help the Club win trophies."
