Everton boss Marco Silva believes that he has signed a winner in Djibril Sidibe.

The World Cup winner has joined on loan with the option of a permanent deal.

He will compete with Seamus Coleman for the right back slot at the Goodison Park club.

Sidibe is 27 and helped Monaco win Ligue 1 in 2016/2017.

Everton manager Silva said of the transfer: "Djibril has fantastic experience, winning titles and playing many matches in a competitive league. He is a World Cup winner and he has the hunger to achieve much more in his career.

"It is important to have different options in each position and with Djibril and Seamus [Coleman] we now have two high-quality right-backs.

"Djibril has also shown to me he has a real desire to play for Everton and be part of the big things we are trying to create."
