Everton sign Nikola Vlasic from Hadjuk Split in £8m deal as highly-rated Croatia international aims to help Toffees into Champions League

Everton have signed Croatia international Nikola Vlasic from Hadjuk Split on a five-year deal worth an initial £8 million but could rise to £10m with add-ons.

The 19-year-old winger impressed Toffees boss Ronald Koeman during a Europa League qualifier against Everton earlier this month and left Croatia's Under-21 squad on Thursday so he could finalise the move.

A delighted Vlasic described his transfer to the Goodison Park outfit as 'the opportunity of a lifetime'.
