Everton have completed the signing of goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg on a three-year deal from Fulham.
Stekelenburg becomes the first signing since Dutch compatriot Ronald Koeman replaced Roberto Martinez as manager last month.
Former Ajax and Roma shot-stopper Stekelenburg spent last term playing under Koeman having joined Southampton on a season-long loan.
"I'm very happy - things have moved very fast over the last couple days," the 33-year-old told evertontv.
"He [Koeman] has come to Everton and he called me a few days after asking if I was willing to follow him. It wasn't difficult to make that choice.
"He's one of the best coaches - he's straight talking, he's fair and he has confidence in me which counts as well.
"I've been here [in England] for a couple of seasons and I love the Premier League. It's fantastic that I can stay."
Koeman added: "Obviously I know Maarten well having worked with him at two clubs before.
"I know through his professionalism, hardworking approach and personality he will fit in well with what I will be building at Everton."
