Former Everton midfielder Leon Osman claims new signing Davy Klaassen will be successful with the Toffees.

The Dutch midfielder signed for the Merseyside club from Ajax at the beginning of this month.

Osman told the club's website: "They say that the Dutch league isn't as good as others around at the moment but he's still been playing in a very good, competitive league and he's been one of the standout players there,"

"That's all he can do - be the best player in that league and he's pretty much proven himself to be that.

"Now it's time for him to come to the Premier League and see if he's going to make that step up too. All the evidence suggests he will be able to do that."
