The two words that say everything about new Everton signing Moise Kean

Moise Kean faced his first press conference as an Everton player this afternoon.

And in a wide-ranging, 20-minute session fielding questions from the media, one of his answers really stood out.

Kean was speaking through an interpreter as he gave considered, in-depth responses on a variety of topics.

But at the very end of the official unveiling, he offered a two-word reply in English to show how desperate he is to pull on that Royal Blue jersey.

Asked if he is ready to play for the Blues against Crystal Palace on Saturday, Kean instantly replied: "Of course!"

And there was definite substance to his confident comment as the 19-year-old talent indicated just how settled he is at Goodison Park already.

Kean explained: "The team is a family and I’m feeling very happy. I want to play.

"I want to prove myself and give 100% of my ability to prove who I am. That’s why I am here."

Asked for initial impressions of working with Marco Silva and his new team-mates, Kean said: "The staff is very good, the team is exceptional.

"They have accepted me very well. I am very grateful and I will pay them back with 100% of my skills."

And he added: "The team is good. My companions are funny we joke a lot. This is important training together."
