Josh King - Fast and lean
Everton have completed the signing of Joshua King from Bournemouth for a nominal fee until the end of 2020/21.
Forward King scored 53 goals in 184 matches for the south coast team after joining from Blackburn Rovers prior to Bournemouth’s first Premier League season in 2015/16.
King’s Premier League football has been exclusively played with Bournemouth and his 161 appearances in the competition have produced 48 goals.
He scores his international goals at a rate of one every three games, with 17 strikes in 51 appearances for Norway – King netted home and away against Spain in qualifying matches for the 2020 European Championship.
King was capped at every level, bar Under-17, from Under-15 to Under-21 before a senior debut, aged 20, in September 2012.
The player, who turned 29 last month, was instrumental to Bournemouth surviving in the Premier League for four straight seasons.
In his second campaign – 2016/17 – when Bournemouth upset the established order to finish ninth, King struck twice in a 6-3 defeat at Goodison Park to prompt a prolific scoring run.
King netted 12 times in 14 games to spearhead the Cherries’ surge to their best league placing.
Capable of operating on either flank, in addition to his favoured centre-forward position, King has 19 Premier League assists.

“We were looking at him in the summer and with his quality, he is going to improve our squad. He is a powerful player, a fast player and we signed him to have more options in front. He can cover all the positions [across the forward line] and has experience in the Premier League."

Looks like he'll be gone by the summer.

Everton's Norwegian striker Josh King is in talks with Turkish side Galatasaray and the 29-year-old seems set to leave the club this summer.

I wonder what the odds are for him to not score a single goal for us before he leaves.
