Tim Iroegbunam - Midfielder
On Saturday 22nd June 2024, Everton announced the signing of midfielder Tim Iroegbunam from Aston Villa, penning a three-year deal until the end of June 2027.
The exciting England youth international has represented the Three Lions at Under-20 level, having been part of the side that won the UEFA Under-19s European Championships in 2022.
After enjoying a stand-out campaign on loan with Championship outfit QPR in 2022-2023 where he made 32 league appearances and scored two goals, Iroegbunam returned to Aston Villa.
An athletic and combative midfielder, he also made his first outings in European competition in 2023-2024, featuring in both legs of Villa's last 16 Europa Conference League win over Ajax, as well as being involved against Lille and Olympiacos in later stages as the Midlanders reached the semi-finals of the competition.
Iroegbunam began his career at West Bromwich Albion and made his senior debut for the Baggies in a Premier League game in May 2021, having initially joined their academy at the age of eight.
He moved to Aston Villa for an undisclosed fee in July 2021, making his senior debut for the club in February 2022 before signing a new long-term contract a month later.
He was Everton's first signing of the 2024-2025 summer transfer window.
Contracted until: June 2027.
