Intro:

Striker Romelu Lukaku spoke of his desire to help make Everton "one of the best teams in England" after completing his club-record 47 million US dollars deal to Goodison Park from Chelsea on Wednesday (30 July).

Script:

"I'm very pleased. For me it's a big honour to play again for such a wonderful club with the manager and the players obviously. Last year was a very good year, and I had a feeling after a short period of time, I had the feeling, it was for me the best place to grow and to develop as a young man and a footballer. So I'm very pleased to be here again and help my team-mates to reach the heights."

"Well I think it is one of those not just important days for the season, I think it is a very, very significant day in the history of our football club. Sometimes when you sign a player you bring excitement. I think with Rom, it's just knowing exactly what we get. It's every Evertonian's wish. You can see the feeling in the dressing room was to try to get him back on a permanent basis to be able to get a bit of continuity with what we did last season."

"We want to become one of the best teams in England. We want to reach the top four. Last year we were very close. Now we want to push on again. I think most of the teams know that we are a good footballing side, but now this is the second year and I think that the manager wants to put a statement in this league and we as players as well (want to do that)."
