French champions, Paris Saint-Germain, have completed the signing of Everton midfielder Idrissa Gueye.

The 29-year-old Senegal international becomes their sixth major addition of the summer.

He has penned a four-year deal that will run through until June 30, 2023.

“I’m immensely proud to sign for Paris Saint-Germain,” he told the Parisian club’s official website.

“After focussing on the AFCON with Senegal, I wanted to give a new boost to my club career by joining Paris Saint-Germain, one of the most structured and ambitious sports projects in Europe.

“I’d like to thank the directors, the coach and his staff for the confidence they have shown in me. I will do everything to justify the faith they have shown in me and to integrate into this talented squad.

“And of course I can’t wait to take in the amazing atmosphere of the Parc des Princes, which impressed me during my first seasons in France!”

Gueye began his professional career in Europe with Lille, where he played 176 times.
