Everton boss Ronald Koeman has praised new signing Idrissa Gueye
The Senegal midfielder, 26, struggled as part of an Aston Villa side that were relegated last season.
It didn’t stop Ronald Koeman from turning to Gueye to bolster Everton’s engine room.
He was one of the players last season with the best record in interceptions and pressing in the midfield. We need this kind of quality and I’m happy to have him joining our club

Koeman said: “Idrissa will provide quality in our squad in the midfield.
“He was one of the players last season with the best record in interceptions and pressing in the midfield. We need this kind of quality and I’m happy to have him joining our club.”
Gueye is expected to be joined at Goodison by Swansea skipper Ashley Williams this week.
Gueye added: “My style is good for the Premier League. You have to fight every game.”
