Everton sign Conor Coady on season-long loan

Wolves defender Conor Coady is leaving to Everton on a season-long loan.

Conor Coady is excited about this move, and according to him, it wasn’t a difficult decision to make.

The 29-year-old said “It’s an important day and a proud day for me.”

Ahead of his debut, Coady promised that he would give his best possible in his delivery.

 “I know how big it is and I know the passion people have for Everton. I’ll give absolutely everything, every day, for this football club. I feel privileged and lucky to be given this opportunity,” he said.

His former side chaired by Jeff Shi have praised Coady. According to Jeff Shi, has been an “integral part of our success” and a “loyal servant”.

He added that due to his commitment, Wolves decided not to stand in the way of Coady’s desire to play elsewhere.

The club has given him their blessings.

“Even when emotionally it can be hard to part after everything we have been through together, it is important for me to look at the wider picture and make difficult decisions. A huge thank you to Conor for everything he has achieved at Wolves, and for being an outstanding person, on and off the football pitch,” Jeff Shi further said.

Coady made more than 300 appearances in seven seasons at Wolves after joining from Huddersfield.

The defender is Everton’s fourth signing of the summer following the arrivals of centre-back James Tarkowski and forward Dwight McNeil from Burnley and defender Ruben Vinagre from Wolves.

Everton manager Frank Lampard believes that Coady’s leadership skills would be of great help to the club.

“As well as being one of the Premier League’s most reliable defenders and an England international, his leadership skills will be of huge benefit to us,” he said.
