Sampdoria president Massimo Ferrero says Everton striker Samuel Eto'o will sign for them.

Samp are just waiting for him to terminate his contract with Everton by mutual consent.

"Eto'o will arrive and he will score many goals," declared Ferrero to the media.

"I can say that I was in England, where I met Eto'o and he is a great champion. The Everton President will soon give us the all-clear."
