Ashley Young has become Everton's first signing of the summer on a free transfer, agreeing a one-year deal until the end of June 2024.
The former England international, who has 39 caps for the Three Lions, adds valuable experience and versatility to Sean Dyche's squad and arrives boasting a trophy-laden career which has included winning the Premier League, Serie A, Europa League, FA Cup and League Cup.
With the ability to play on either wing in the first part of his career at Watford and Aston Villa, Young developed into a wing-back and full-back during nine years at Manchester United - where he was appointed club captain in 2019 - before moving on to Inter Milan and becoming only the third Englishman to win Italy's top-flight title.
A regular starter at left wing-back alongside new Everton teammate Jordan Pickford in England's run to the World Cup semi-finals in 2018, Young returned to Villa Park in 2021 and spent a further two years with the Midlands club until the expiry of his contract in June.
Young has made 422 Premier League appearances and ranks 15th in the competition's all-time assists with 71.
