Everton confirm Joshua King shirt number after deadline day transfer

Joshua King will wear number 11 for Everton until the end of the Premier League season.

King, 29, completed a move to Goodison Park for the remainder of the campaign from Championship outfit Bournemouth on transfer deadline day.

The former Manchester United prospect received an offer from Fulham but decided to join Everton over the Londoners.

King subsequently signed terms until the summer to provide Carlo Ancelotti with back-up to Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Richarlison after Cenk Tosun and Anthony Gordon were allowed to leave on loan.

Theo Walcott previously took the number 11 shirt at Everton before moving to Southampton in October on a season-long loan.

Daniel Amokachi, Anders Limpar, Francis Jeffers, James McFadden, Jõ, Denis Stracqualursi and Kevin Mirallas have also sported the jersey.
